Lorenzo Cain Starting To Heat Up
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain went 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBI, two walks, and a run in the 5-2 win over the Colorado Rockies. In Cain's last five games, he's rocking a .389 batting average with two RBI and three runs in that span. While Cain isn't necessarily the best power option, he's […]
Travis Shaw Breaks Out Of Slump With Three Hit Night
Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Travis Shaw went 3-for-5 with two runs and a double in the 5-2 win over the Colorado Rockies. Shaw came into this game with a .223 batting average after he had only three hits in his last seven games and looks to hopefully break out of his hitting slump with this […]
Corey Knebel Pitches Setup Inning For Hold
Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Corey Knebel pitched one inning giving up a walk while striking out two in the 5-2 win over the Colorado Rockies. Knebel pitched the eighth inning while Jeremy Jeffress pitched the ninth in the victory. Knebel recently returned from a hamstring injury and isn't going to be overtaking the closer role […]
Jeremy Jeffress Gets Third Save Of The Season
Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Jeremy Jeffress pitched one perfect inning with three strikeouts in the 5-2 win over the Colorado Rockies. With Corey Knebel being used as a mid reliever right now to get him back into the groove of things, it will open up more save opportunities for Jeffress and Josh Hader for the […]
Zach Davies Not Ready To Start Friday
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies (shoulder) was projected to start on Friday, however, will sit out in favor of Brandon Woodruff. After throwing a bullpen session on Wednesday, it looks like he still needs a little bit more time before returning to the rotation. With Chase Anderson starting on Saturday, if Davies is ready […]
Brandon Woodruff Called Up, Will Start On Friday
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Brandon Woodruff has been called up from Triple-A Colorado Springs Sky Sox and will start Friday against the Colorado Rockies. Zach Davies was originally scheduled to start Friday, however, it appears he's not ready after throwing a bullpen session on Wednesday. Woodruff will be going up against a hot Rockies squad in […]
Jorge Lopez Sent Down To Triple-A
Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Jorge Lopez has been sent down back to Triple-A Colorado Springs Sky Sox after Boone Logan was activated off the disabled list. So far in every appearance that Lopez has had with the Brewers so far, he has given up a run and holds a 5.14 ERA in seven innings pitched. […]
Boone Logan Activated Off Disabled List
Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Boone Logan (triceps) has been activated off the 10-day disabled list and will be available to pitch for Thursday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Jorge Lopez was sent back down to Triple-A Colorado Springs Sky Sox as a corresponding move. Logan is now the fourth lefty in the Brewers bullpen along […]
Domingo Santana Will Rest Thursday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Domingo Santana (rest) will sit out of Thursday's contest against the Colorado Rockies. As part of the move, Christian Yelich will move to right field, Ryan Braun to left field, and Jesus Aguilar at first base. With the Brewers outfield remaining crowded and Aguilar playing quite well, Santana remains the odd one […]

Rookie Report: Recent MLB Prospect Call-Ups (Week 6)
Over the past two weeks we have seen three rookie pitchers throw no-hitters through six innings (one of them was a perfect game), and flat-out dominance from some other rookie arms. There was not much to talk about over the first few weeks but now that the season is in full swing and the rookies […]

Junior Guerra Gets Roughed Up In Second Consecutive Start
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Junior Guerra went five innings giving up six hits, four earned runs, and two walks while striking out nine in the 6-2 loss to the Cleveland Indians. After starting the year with a 0.82 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in his first four starts, he's now up to a 3.09 ERA with […]
Christian Yelich Swinging A Hot Bat In May
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich went 1-for-4 with a run in the 6-2 loss to the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday. Yelich has really been swinging a hot bat since May started as he's collected hits in six of the seven games thus far while holding a .370 batting average as well. On top of the […]
Corey Knebel Allows Solo Home Run In Return
Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Corey Knebel made his first appearance since April 5 where he received a hamstring injury and allowed a solo home run to Francisco Lindor. Knebel pitched the entire sixth inning, and while the solo home run was all he allowed, it looks like he won't be closing games until he gets […]
Tyler Saladino Called Up To Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Tyler Saladino has been called up to the Milwaukee Brewers from Triple-A Colorado Springs Sky Sox. With Nick Franklin going down with a quadriceps injury, it was expected that Nate Orf would be called up. However, the Brewers have optioned for Saladino. He will take the primary role of being a utility […]
Zach Davies Is Throwing A Bullpen Session
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies (shoulder) threw a bullpen session on Wednesday before the game. Davies landed on the 10-day disabled list with a rotator cuff problem, and he was only projected to miss the necessary 10 days before returning to the rotation. The plan is for him to start on Friday in Denver. […]
Wade Miley Expected to Miss 4-6 Weeks
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley (obilque) is expected to miss 4 to 6 weeks due to a right oblique strain. That means Miley will likely rejoin the Brewers in June or early July. The veteran lefty was posting a 1.42 ERA before he went down due to injury. However, Miley is not a strong […]

Josh Hader Locks Down Fifth Save Of 2018 Season
Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader threw two perfect innings while striking out three in the 3-2 win over the Cleveland Indians. This was another one of Hader's multi-inning saves, and he's now up to five saves on the season. With closer Corey Knebel coming back on Wednesday, Hader most likely won't be the first […]
Brent Suter Hits Home Run, Pitches 4 2/3 Innings In Relief For Win
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Brent Suter went 4 2/3 innings on Tuesday, giving up five hits, two earned runs and one walk while striking out five in the 3-2 win over the Cleveland Indians. Despite Suter not looking too great out of the bullpen, he managed to hit a home run off Corey Kluber in the […]
Nick Franklin Injured On Tuesday, Likely Headed To DL
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Nick Franklin exited Tuesday's game with a quadriceps strain and is most likely headed to the disabled list, according to Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Franklin was just called up on the same day to replace Eric Sogard on the bench and with him most likely heading to the DL, […]
Wade Miley Exits Tuesday With Strained Oblique, Will Go To DL
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley only recorded one out before exiting Wednesday's game with a strained right oblique. After only making his first start for the Brewers just a week ago where he pitched six innings and only gave up one run, this is unfortunate, especially since he worked to recover from a groin […]
Corey Knebel Will Be Activated Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers closer Corey Knebel (hamstring) will be officially activated off the 10-day disabled list for Wednesday's bout against the Cleveland Indians. Knebel has been suffering from a hamstring injury since April 5 in only his second appearance and is ahead of his original six-week schedule. Knebel will most likely slide right back into the […]
Mauricio Dubon Tears ACL, Out For Rest Of Season
Milwaukee Brewers infielder prospect Mauricio Dubon (knee) has torn his ACL and will miss the rest of the 2018 season in Triple-A. The No. 10 prospect was most likely going to be the first one called up for Eric Sogard after going on a 23-game hitting streak with the Colorado Springs Sky Sox and overall […]
Stephen Vogt Goes To 60-Day DL After Re-Injuring Shoulder
Milwaukee Brewers catcher Stephen Vogt (shoulder) suffered a setback in his recovery and actually did more damage to his rotator cuff as well. Vogt was near a return, so this is detrimental to his recovery. It was believed that Manny Pina and Vogt would share time at catcher, but with Vogt out for potentially the […]
Eric Sogard Optioned To Triple-A
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Eric Sogard has been optioned to Triple-A Colorado Springs. After going hitless in his last 27 at-bats and only holding a .100 batting average, the Brewers have decided to send him down to Triple-A to work on the fundamentals. Nick Franklin has been called up in a corresponding move. Sogard didn't hold […]
Nick Franklin Called Up From Double-A, Will Start On Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Nick Franklin has been added to the 40-man roster from Double-A Biloxi and will play second base on Tuesday against the Cleveland Indians. A 40-man roster spot opened after it was announced that catcher Stephen Vogt could potentially have season-ending surgery on his shoulder and was added to the 60-day disabled list, […]
