Box Score Once again, a Brewers-Dodgers matchup ended in a low-scoring affair, and the Dodgers came out on top with a 4-3 spring training win. The Brewers got off to a strong start against Emmett Sheehan of the Dodgers, with Greg Jones rifling an RBI single in the second inning to give the Crew a […]
It’s another day of World Baseball Classic pool play, as two of the top teams are set to face off in Team USA and Team Mexico. Mexico is 2-0 thus far, with an 8-2 win against Great Britain on Friday and a 16-0 blowout win over Brazil yesterday. The USA is also 2-0, with a […]
It’s a rematch of the NLCS at American Family Fields of Phoenix as the Brewers take on the Dodgers Monday afternoon. And just like the NLCS, on the mound for the Brewers will be Aaron Ashby to start things off. He’s continuing to get stretched out this spring training for a potential starting role. Following […]
It has been a roller coaster offseason at the hot corner in Milwaukee. It was a big question at the beginning of last season, too, but Caleb Durbin quickly snagged the job once given an opportunity and put up a very nice rookie season in which he was about a league-average hitter, stole 18 bases, […]
Box Score Jake Bauers and Andrew Vaughn both had two extra-base hits, Ethan Murray channelled his inner Barry Bonds, and Kyle Harrison struck out over half of the batters he faced to earn Milwaukee their fourth straight spring victory. The only batter to reach base for either team in the first inning was Jake Bauers, […]
Today’s spring training matchup pits the Brewers against the Seattle Mariners, who finished one win shy of the World Series last season. On the mound for Milwaukee tonight is lefty Kyle Harrison, acquired from the Red Sox this offseason in exchange for a package headlined by infielder Caleb Durbin. As I wrote about a few […]
Box Score With the Brewers’ top middle infielders off playing in the World Baseball Classic, Pat Murphy has been getting quite the look at Jesús Made and Cooper Pratt as the potential future up the middle, and they aren’t missing their opportunities. The Cactus Crew got the scoring started with three runs in the second inning […]
After Team USA posted a dominant 15-5 win over Team Brazil last night, they are back in action tonight with their second game of pool play. Their second opponent will be Team Great Britain, the same team that the Brewers faced in an exhibition game earlier this week. Great Britain lost to Mexico yesterday and […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are back in action on Saturday afternoon as they’ll travel to take on the Los Angeles Angels for Brandon Woodruff’s spring debut. Woodruff, the only pitcher to not appear this spring of the non-Quinn Priester variety (Priester’s availability to begin the season is in doubt as he deals with wrist discomfort), will […]

The World Baseball Classic is underway. Games officially started on Wednesday, but today is the first full day of games in the event. This will also be the first official gameday for Team USA for this year’s WBC. Team USA is part of Pool B, playing in Houston. Group play opened earlier today with Mexico […]
Box Score Milwaukee picked up its second straight spring win today behind strong showings from several of their top prospects. Jesús Made, Mike Boeve, Luis Lara, and Eric Bitonti all had RBIs as the Brewers defeated the Diamondbacks, 6-2. Arizona got on the board in the first inning against Brewers starter Chad Patrick. Jacob Amaya […]
The Brewers return to Cactus League action Friday after an exciting 10–8 victory over the Colorado Rockies. Today’s game pits Milwaukee against the local Arizona Diamondbacks for the first time this spring. Chad Patrick is on the mound for the Brewers on the heels of Pat Murphy’s declaration that Patrick “will be in the rotation” […]
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. Welcome to March, as Opening Day is now just three weeks away! Feel free to use this thread to chat about (almost) anything you want: video games, food, movies, non-baseball sports, the Brewers, you name it. As long as it’s appropriate and is allowed by our moderators, it’s fair game […]
Box Score Garrett Mitchell has all the talent in the world to be a star in this league. Injuries have plagued him to this point, but he’s healthy and showing what he’s capable of. Mitchell got this game started with a bang, a 462-foot home run off Michael Lorenzen that came off the bat at […]
MLB’s best team from a year ago gets set to take on MLB’s worst team from a year ago as the Brewers and Colorado Rockies square off in today’s Cactus League action. Lefty Robert Gasser gets the start today for the Brewers. This will be his second Cactus League outing this year. In his first, […]
The Milwaukee Brewers have an obvious choice at the top of their second-base depth chart, one that should be a big part of, at least, the next few years. After that, it’s a little less clear, but there are a bunch of potential options, and as long as Brice Turang’s health holds out, we shouldn’t […]
Box Score Despite a vintage performance from Christian Yelich, who reached base three times in his spring debut, Milwaukee fell to the Chicago Cubs 4-1. Chicago jumped out to an early 2-0 lead and never looked back. In the top of the first, Brandon Sproat made short work of the Cubs, retiring the top of […]
The NL Central’s fiercest rivalry returns today as the Brewers take on the Chicago Cubs for the first time this spring. Offseason acquisition Brandon Sproat is scheduled to take the mound for Milwaukee. Sproat’s made one appearance so far this spring, surrendering three hits (one earned run) while striking out three in 1 1/3 innings […]

Last week, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s JR Radcliffe caught up with Baseball Prospectus’ Jonathan Judge to discuss the recent PECOTA projections. Those rankings, which I covered here, somewhat notoriously projected the Brewers for just 80.5 wins (it has since been inched up to 81.1), and Radcliffe wanted to give Judge a chance to explain in […]
This morning, MLB Pipeline released its list of the top 30 Brewers prospects in anticipation of the upcoming season. The full list can be found here. I’m not going to overview each player on the list because BCB’s Dave Gasper just released his list of the top 50 Brewers prospects, complete with bios on each […]
Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers took on Team Great Britain on Tuesday afternoon in Phoenix, and a rough fifth inning from Jared Koenig buried Milwaukee in a 7-3 loss. With Jacob Misiorowski making his spring debut, he started the game with a pair of strikeouts wrapped around a walk to Jazz Chisholm Jr. He then […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are set to take on Team Great Britain at American Family Fields of Phoenix on Tuesday afternoon, in what will be a tune-up for Team GBR as the World Baseball Classic is set to officially begin on Wednesday (Team GBR’s first pool game is on Friday). The game is one of 15 […]
On Tuesday, Jacob Misiorowski is set to make his spring debut. With the departure of Freddy Peralta, he is arguably the highlight of the Brewers’ rotation now. Brandon Woodruff is still the longest-tenured Brewer, but Misiorowski is being pushed as one of the new faces of the franchise. As he enters his second season, here […]
