Taking stock of Jacob Misiorowski’s historic start

I’m not breaking news by telling you that Jacob Misiorowski is having a good season. He has made 14 starts (a little less than half of a full season), and here are his numbers, with bolds indicating he leads the NL and bold plus italic indicating he leads the majors: I want to look a […]

Brewers jump all over Guardians, Sproat exits early in 9-4 victory

Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers had the lead right from the jump and never gave it up as they cruised to a 9-4 win over the Cleveland Guardians, giving them a chance to sweep tomorrow. Christian Yelich led this game off with an opposite-field home run off Gavin Williams, taking a curveball down and away […]

Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (44-26) vs. Cleveland Guardians (39-34)

The Milwaukee Brewers will be looking to secure a series win over the Cleveland Guardians tonight after a win in last night’s pitchers’ duel. Some pregame notes from Pat Murphy include a positive report on Brandon Woodruff’s rehab start last night for High-A Wisconsin, in which Woodruff was sitting 90-92 mph. He’s expected to rejoin […]

Luis Lara, Cooper Pratt, and the Brewers’ front office philosophy

On April 3, 2026, the Brewers signed 21-year-old shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt to an eight-year, $50.75 million contract. The deal includes two club options worth an additional $30 million. On June 9, 2026, the Brewers signed 21-year-old outfield prospect Luis Lara to a seven-year, $31 million contract. The deal includes three club options worth an […]

Gasser leads Brewers to 2-1 win in Pratt’s debut

Box Score It was a big day for the Brewers. Cooper Pratt, the shiny new prospect, made his major league debut. While Pratt will surely have “better” days to look forward to from a baseball-playing standpoint, he’ll remember it forever. But tonight, the story for the Brewers was lefty Robert Gasser, who at times has […]

Brewers’ Jackson Chourio, Jacob Misiorowski named co-NL Players of the Week

The Milwaukee Brewers became the first team since August 2024 to have a pair of teammates named as co-Players of the Week on Monday, as outfielder Jackson Chourio and right-hander Jacob Misiorowski both took home the NL Player of the Week Award. Chourio, 22, earns his first such award, while this marks the second career […]

Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers vs. Cleveland Guardians

The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to maintain their lead in the NL Central as they’ll play host to the Cleveland Guardians this week, a team right in the mix in the AL Central. The Brewers, at 43-26, sit five games ahead of the second-place Cardinals in the division and currently hold the No. 3 seed […]

2026 Brewers Week in Review: Week 12

Last Week’s Results Division Standings Last Week Top Pitching Performance of the Week This past week was filled with a lot more offensive performances than it was with pitching. Of course, half of the week, some could say you could put an asterisk on, as they played at a Triple-A stadium. Naturally, in the first […]

Brewers to promote shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt

It is time. The Milwaukee Brewers are promoting shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt to the major leagues. Pratt signed an eight-year contract extension with the Brewers worth north of $50 million back in April. Now, at long last, he will arrive in Milwaukee. Pratt was removed from the Triple-A Nashville Sounds game on Sunday in the […]

Brewers power their way to a rubber match win

Box Score In what could be a future playoff matchup, the Milwaukee Brewers took the rubber match behind two home runs from Blake Perkins and Jackson Chourio to beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-0 on Sunday afternoon. Facing the reigning National League Player of the Month? No problem. Chourio opened the home half of the first […]

Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (42-25) vs. Philadelphia Phillies (37-32)

The Milwaukee Brewers and Philadelphia Phillies are getting back at it after a thorough domination from Jacob Misiorowski on Friday night. The Phillies will certainly be eager to face anyone else on the mound for the Brewers. But they will be tasked with facing Shane Drohan, who, while not as dominant as Misiorowski, has been […]

Sal Frelick deserves more time

This has not been a good season for Sal Frelick. He has struggled at the plate. Even more alarmingly, he has struggled in the field. People are speculating as to whether he’s injured. And when the Brewers secured the signature of Luis Lara — who has been red hot all season at Triple-A Nashville — […]

Misiorowski is historic as Brewers blank Phillies 6-0

Box Score We’ve gotten used to the idea that when Jacob Misiorowski pitches, you might see something you’ve never seen before. Tonight, I saw one of the greatest games ever pitched. Misiorowski, who’d never pitched in the eighth inning before, threw a complete game shutout. He did it on just 95 pitches. He struck out […]

Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 6/12-6/18

Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers had another slightly underwhelming week, as they swept the Rockies in Colorado and won an extra-innings slugfest on Monday night in Las Vegas but ultimately dropped their series with the A’s. Elsewhere in the division, the bottom three teams (Pirates, Cubs, and Reds) struggled, but the Cardinals continue […]

Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers vs. Philadelphia Phillies

The Milwaukee Brewers are back in town this weekend, as they’ll host the Philadelphia Phillies for a three-game set beginning Friday night. The Brewers, at 41-25 on the season, sit in first place in the NL Central, 3.5 games ahead of the Cardinals entering Thursday’s play. They’re coming off a 4-2 road trip in which […]

Monday night just adds to the list of all-time wild Brewers games

Monday night’s offensive slugfest with the Athletics in Las Vegas was nothing short of wild. From Kyle Harrison’s random blowup, where the first pitch of the bottom of the first inning got taken for a ride, to the 15 overturned pitch challenges, or maybe the fact that despite giving up 14 runs as a pitching […]
