Corey Knebel Looking To Return Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers closer Corey Knebel (hamstring) is done with his minor league assignment and has now joined the Brewers in Milwaukee.

There is a very likely chance whoever pitches Tuesday will get sent down to Triple-A […]

His addition to an already stacked Brewers bullpen with names […]

Orlando Arcia Out Of Lineup Saturday
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia (rest) will sit on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Nothing was reported about any injury towards Arcia, so he's just getting a customary rest day. He will most likely return for Sunday's game against the Pirates provided there is no injury. He should be taken out of all lineups for […]

Buy or Sell - Underowned and Overowned Players for Week 6
It was nice to see Drew Pomeranz toss a quality start (finally) and prove that he's not a carcass of a former Rockies pitcher like Jhoulys Chacin. This, however, is a disclaimer that some of these buy-low/sell-high candidates may not pan out right away. Or ever. I'm still hoping that as soon as Domingo Santana […]
Jesus Aguilar Ups Hitting Streak To Four Games
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jesus Aguilar went 1-for-3 with a run and an RBI in the 6-4 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Aguilar has been filling in for an injured Eric Thames since April 25 and so far has looked great. In his last four games, he has batted 5-for-12 for a .417 batting average […]
Travis Shaw Has Hit A Wall Offensively
Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Travis Shaw went 1-for-4 in the 6-4 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
