Chase Anderson Takes Loss Tuesday Versus Cincinnati
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Chase Anderson suffered a subpar outing at an inopportune time Tuesday versus the Reds. He would last 3 2/3 innings allowing three runs which left him with the loss when the Brewers only scored one run. Despite shutting down the Cubs in a short outing last time, he had allowed several […]

X-Rays Negative On Travis Shaw
Updating a previous report, X-rays turned up negative on Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw (knee) after he was hit by a pitch and left the game early on Tuesday. Shaw is likely just dealing with a knee contusion and could return very soon. There's a chance he might not even need to miss a game. […]
Lorenzo Cain Dealing With Intercostal Issue
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain (intercostal) has been dealing with an intercostal issue and was removed from the game early on Tuesday, according to manager Craig Counsell. Cain tweaked his side on a swing the other day. He was hitless in two plate appearances with a strikeout before leaving on Tuesday. The Brewers are likely […]
Travis Shaw Injured Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw (knee) left the game early on Tuesday with a bruised right knee after he was hit by a pitch. Shaw scored a run in his lone plate appearance before leaving the game. It's unknown how serious this injury is, but hopefully for Shaw owners he won't need to miss much […]
Ryan Braun Remains Out on Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Ryan Braun (rest) is out of the starting lineup for the second straight game on Tuesday. Braun has not been hitting very well lately, so that could be part of the reason he's seeing more of the bench. Curtis Granderson will lead off and play right field versus righty Michael Lorenzen. […]

NL-Only Waiver Wire Team of the Week: MLB Week 25
Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]

Domingo Santana Clutch Off The Bench Again Monday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Domingo Santana has come up clutch off the bench the last two days. Santana has homered as a pinch-hitter in each of the past two games. The two HR bring his season total up to five. Santana has not been getting many starts down the stretch. In the past five games that […]
Curtis Granderson Scores Three Times Monday Versus Reds
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Curtis Granderson made his start Monday versus Cincinnati count. He would reach base three times and would come around to score on all of them. It is the second time in his last three starts that he has scored three times. Overall, Granderson is not much of a fantasy option by outfielder […]
Christian Yelich Makes History Monday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich did something very rare in the baseball world on Monday. He would hit for the cycle for the second time this season. There have been a handful of people to do that in history. The unique part is that both were against the same team, which had never happened before. […]
Wade Miley Solid Monday Versus Cincinnati
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley provided another quality outing Monday versus the Reds. He would go five innings without giving up a run. It was his fifth straight outing where he allowed two or fewer runs while going at least five innings. He is now 5-2 with a 2.08 ERA in 14 starts with […]
Curtis Granderson is Back in the Lineup
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Curtis Granderson is back in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Ryan Braun (rest) will be out of the lineup for this contest.

Jesus Aguilar Shows Power Sunday Versus Pittsburgh
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jesus Aguilar tried to propel his team into a comeback Sunday versus the Pirates. He would break up the shutout in the ninth inning with a solo homer which made it 3-1. After the next batter followed with his own blast, the score was reduced to 3-2. Pittsburgh would regroup to […]
Jhoulys Chacin Strong Again Sunday Versus Pittsburgh
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin continued his strong 2018 season Sunday versus the Pirates. He would go five innings allowing only two runs which matched his previous outing. The Brewers, unfortunately, would be held scoreless until the ninth inning, which by that point they were down 3-0. Chacin took the loss, which was his […]

Zach Davies Solid But Takes Loss Saturday Versus Pittsburgh
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies did his job Saturday of keeping his team in the game against Pittsburgh. He lasted five innings allowing only two runs. However, Milwaukee's offense only scored a single run so he took the loss. Davies now stands at 2-6 with a 4.66 ERA. He likely won't be fantasy relevant […]
Christian Yelich Continues Career Season Saturday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich has been having the best season of his career in 2018. He would homer for the second straight game Saturday for the only run Milwaukee would score against Pittsburgh. The HR was his 30th of the season which is the best seasonal total of his career. He is currently on […]

Ryan Braun is Sitting Out Saturday
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Ryan Braun (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Braun has just one hit over his last five games, so he'll get a day off on Saturday. Christian Yelich will slide over to left field and bat second against righty Ivan Nova. Yelich is […]
Curtis Granderson Will Lead Off on Saturday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Curtis Granderson will lead off and play right field versus righty Ivan Nova on Saturday. Granderson has not played a bunch since being traded to the Brewers from Toronto. He went 3-for-4 with one home run and three runs scored on Wednesday. Granderson is not valuable in fantasy leagues, but he could […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of leagues ANALYSIS: Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley has gone under the radar.
