Corbin Burnes Earns A Rotation Spot

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Corbin Burnes has officially been named in the opening rotation. The Brewers announced on Thursday that Chase Anderson will start 2019 in the bullpen with Burnes taking his spot. Burnes has yet to start a game in the majors, but hold a 2.77 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in the minors while striking […]

Alex Wilson Signs With Brewers

The Milwaukee Brewers signed free-agent reliever Alex Wilson to help bolster their bullpen. The Brewers have lost Jeremy Jeffress and Corey Knebel recently and are in desperate need for some solid arms. Wilson posted a 3.36 ERA with a 1.05 WHIP last year with the Tigers and could be a big help for the Brewers […]

Jeremy Jeffress To Open Season On Injured List

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress (shoulder) will start 2019 on the injured list, according to manager Craig Counsell. Jeffress is currently dealing with shoulder fatigue, though the absence doesn't seem to be lengthy. Jeffress has already thrown a bullpen session but won't have enough time to rebuild strength by opening day. With Corey Knebel potentially being […]

Chase Anderson To Start 2019 In Bullpen

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Chase Anderson will start the 2019 season in the bullpen, according to manager Craig Counsell. Counsell announced Thursday that the rotation will have Jhoulys Chacin start on opening day with Freddy Peralta, Corbin Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, and Zach Davies filling out the rest of the spots. This is bad news for […]

Jhoulys Chacin Struggles On Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin gave up five runs on seven hits and a walk through 4 2/3 innings on Wednesday against the Cubs. Chacin did strike out five batters and only three of the runs were earned, but it's a disappointing start for him as he had been on a roll recently and […]

Josh Hader Blows Lead On Monday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Josh Hader gave up a two-run homer to Anthony Rizzo to lose the lead in the eighth inning on Monday against the Cubs. Hader is known for pitching one to two innings at a time, but this time the Brewers tried to get three out of him and it backfired. Hader's ERA […]

Zach Davies Looks Strong In Return

Milwaukee starting pitcher Zach Davies finally returned from the disabled list and threw five innings and allowed only one run against the Cubs, while striking out seven batters. Davies looked good, but he more than likely won't be fantasy relevant this season. With the Brewers addition of Gio Gonzalez, there may not be a rotation […]

Jeremy Jeffress Blows Save Friday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress gave up a run on two hits and a walk on Friday night against the Pirates to blow the save. Though it may seem like bad news, there is actually a silver lining to this. This was the third save opportunity in a row for Jeffress after converting the last […]

Wade Miley Hit Hard Friday

Milwaukee Brewers starter Wade Miley gave up two runs through five innings on Friday. Though the results don't seem bad, he allowed 10 hits and walked a batter while only striking out four. Miley rarely gets through six innings and doesn't strike anyone out, so he doesn't offer a whole lot of upside this late […]

Jimmy Nelson Unlikely To Return This Season

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jimmy Nelson is unlikely to return to the Brewers in the 2018 season according to GM David Stearns and manager Craig Counsell. Nelson underwent shoulder surgery last September and has yet to begin a rehab assignment. Nelson says that he is doing everything in his power to come back this season, […]

Zach Davies Sent To Minors

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies was optioned to the minors on Thursday along with Corey Knebel. Unlike Knebel, this doesn't look like a demotion, but more of an opportunity for Davies to get in some extra time before returning to the majors from a shoulder injury. Davies had a breakout year in 2017 with […]

Joakim Soria Expected Back Friday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Joakim Soria is expected to come off the disabled list for Friday's game against the Pirates. Soria had been on the disabled list with a groin strain but is feeling good after throwing to live hitters on Tuesday. Corey Knebel was optioned to the minors on Thursday, which looks to be the […]

Corey Knebel Sent To Minors

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Corey Knebel was demoted to Triple-A on Thursday. While it is certainly upsetting for Knebel owners, the move isn't surprising. Knebel has been having a terrible year with a 5.08 ERA and has continued to struggle in the bullpen since losing his job, meanwhile, Jeremy Jeffress and Josh Hader have been stellar […]

Corey Knebel Struggling In August

Milwaukee Brewer reliever Corey Knebel lost his closer job in late July and has continues to pitch worse ever since. On August 1st, his ERA was 3.98 and it now sits at 5.08. Through nine appearances so far this month, he has allowed at least one run in five of them. During his time away […]

Ryan Braun Hits Two Doubles Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun went 2-for-4 with two doubles and a run scored during Wednesday's win against the Reds. Braun had recently missed a little time with tightness in his rib cage, but seems to be healthy again. Due to his age, injury risk, and the Brewers abundance of players, he doesn't play every […]

Lorenzo Cain Collects Three Hits Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's win against the Reds. Cain has been hitting very well lately, posting a .389 average and .922 OPS over the last two weeks with five steals. Though he doesn't offer a whole lot of power, he is a great source of batting average […]

Christian Yelich Perfect At The Plate Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich went 4-for-4 with a walk and a home run on Wednesday against the Reds. Yelich has been red hot over the last month batting .345 with a 1.059 OPS and nine home runs. It looks like the production increase expected from moving from Miami to Milwaukee has finally started to […]

Jeremy Jeffress Records Another Save

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress recorded his fifth save of the year and second in a row on Wednesday against the Reds. Before Jeffress got the save on Monday, Josh Hader had recorded three saves in a row, so the closer situation in Milwaukee still seems pretty murky. They are both worth owning right now […]

Freddy Peralta Shuts Down Reds

Milwaukee Brewers starter Freddy Peralta threw seven shutout innings on Wednesday in a win against the Reds. Peralta also only allowed three hits and two walks while striking out seven. Though Peralta has been having some trouble staying consistent lately, he's now posted back to back quality starts and three of the last four, which […]

Chase Anderson Is A Risky Two Start Option

Milwaukee Brewers starter Chase Anderson is heading into a good looking match up against the Reds on Monday, but it might not be as juicy as it looks. Anderson has posted a 8.31 ERA in his last two starts against San Diego and Atlanta. On top of that, the Reds offense has been coming alive […]

Jeremy Jeffress Gives Up Rare Run On Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress pitched two innings and gave up one run during Sunday's win versus the Cardinals. Josh Hader came in for the save in the ninth, and both relievers are having amazing seasons. Both Hader and Jeffress look to see some save chances while Corey Knebel is still out of the role, […]

Josh Hader Locks Down Save Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Josh Hader struck out two batters on nine pitches to secure a 2-1 lead and a save on Sunday against the Cardinals. Hader now has back to back saves in his last two appearances and sits at 10 on the season. The Brewers have had a few different relievers get chances at […]

Jhoulys Chacin Good Again Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin threw six shutout innings in a win against the Cardinals on Sunday. This now marks three consecutive quality starts for Chacin and brings his ERA and WHIP down to a respectable 3.58 and 1.17 respectively. The recent success is encouraging but hard to trust. Chacin has a low strikeout […]

Jhoulys Chacin Throws Gem Versus Cubs

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin struck out 10 batters while throwing seven scoreless innings on Tuesday in a win against the Cubs. Even after this start, Chacin still has a 3.91 ERA and 1.22 WHIP on the season with a low strikeout rate which doesn't offer a lot of upside. Chacin is a two […]

Ryan Braun Homers Twice Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun slugged two home runs during Tuesday's win versus the Cubs. Due to his age, injury concerns, down season and the Brewers abundance of hitters, Braun was looking to be the odd man out most days in the lineup, but he might be playing his way into more playing time. Braun […]

Lorenzo Cain Homers In Win

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain stayed hot on Tuesday with two hits, including a homer. Cain has been on fire lately with a .365 average and .919 OPS over the last two weeks with a couple of steals. Though he doesn't provide a lot of power, Cain is a great source of average and runs […]

Jose Altuve Ruled Out Through Tuesday

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve has been rule out through at least Tuesday and is headed back to Houston to see the team doctors. Altuve has been on the disabled list with a knee issue and though it's uncertain whether this is a setback or planned, it means that the earliest we could see […]

Buster Posey Starting Sunday

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey is starting at first base on Sunday after leaving Friday's game and sitting Saturday with concussion symptoms. Posey was able to pass a concussion test Saturday afternoon and was cleared to play Sunday. Posey has been red hot over the last two weeks hitting .400 with a .933 OPS, […]

Dee Gordon Out Again Sunday

Seattle Mariners second baseman Dee Gordon is out of the lineup for the second day in a row on Sunday. Gordon initially left Thursday's game after twisting his right ankle, then played Friday and now has sat the last two days. Hopefully Gordon doesn't miss too much more time, but even if he doesn't, the […]

Roberto Osuna Reinstated Sunday

Houston Astros reliever Roberto Osuna was reinstated Sunday from his 75 game suspension. It has been a while since Osuna has pitched, so he may not take over the closer role immediately, but he did through seven shutout innings with eight strikeouts in the minors before being reinstated, which is encouraging. Osuna is a most […]
