Who will back up William Contreras in 2026?
Jeferson Quero The fun answer! Quero probably would have already earned a spot on the 26-man roster if not for a torn right labrum that sidelined him for almost the entirety of 2024 and the first couple of months of 2025. He had a bit of a slow start upon returning, but ended the year […]

Potential Brewers offseason targets: Outfield
Today we are wrapping up our series looking at potential targets from outside the Brewers’ organization that could help the team in 2026.

Could Chad Patrick improve in 2026?
After a rookie season with a 3.53 ERA, Chad Patrick is already set to be a fundamental player in the Brewers’ rotation plans come 2026.

2026 Brewers Comeback Player of the Year candidates
I’m writing this article in defense of a couple players that were at one point seen as potential answers at their respective positions but now face questions about their long-term fit with the Brewers.

Potential Brewers offseason targets: Infield

MLB’s non-tender deadline was at 4 p.m. CT today, and while the Brewers reportedly tendered contracts to all seven of their arbitration-eligible players, there were a few surprising (and not so surprising) moves across the league. Let’s take a quick look at every team’s non-tender decisions.
