Domingo Santana Will Rest Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Domingo Santana will rest on Tuesday as Jesus Aguilar plays first base and Ryan Braun will play left field. When the Brewers want to get Aguilar in at first, nine times out of 10 they're going to take out Santana. That's just the way it's going to be until someone in the […]

Josh Hader Won't Pitch on Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader (rest) will not pitch against the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday, according to manager Craig Counsell. Hader struck out eight of the nine batters he faced during Monday's contest. He picked up his fourth save of the season, but won't see as many save chances once Corey Knebel (hamstring) returns […]

Corey Knebel Cleared for Rehab Assignment

Milwaukee Brewers closer Corey Knebel (hamstring) has been cleared to begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Biloxi on Wednesday. He's expected to make three or four appearances before rejoining the Brewers on their next road trip.

Brett Phillips Recalled From Triple-A

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Brett Phillips has been recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs. He went 1-for-7 in a stint with the MLB club earlier in the season.

Ryan Braun Matches Up Well Against Reds On Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun will go up against starting pitcher Homer Bailey and the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday, and Braun historically has good numbers against Bailey. In 47 career at-bats, he's rocking a .340 batting average with nine RBI and four home runs. This is large enough of a sample size to come to […]

Orlando Arcia Continuing Early-Season Struggles

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia went 0-for-3 before being replaced by Hernan Perez in the 6-5 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Monday. This is now the third game in a row where he has gone hitless, and in his last five starts he has only one hit. The 23-year-old former top prospect still has […]

Lorenzo Cain Is Brewers Batter Of The Month

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain has been named the Brewers player for the month of March/April with his torrid start to the season.

Josh Hader Makes The History Books In Save

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader went 2 2/3 innings pitched on Monday, giving up a walk while striking out eight in the 6-5 win over the Cincinnati Reds. Brewers manager Craig Counsell sent Hader out for two outs in the seventh and left him out there, which ended up being a good decision, as […]

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Stephen Vogt (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Biloxi on Wednesday. Vogt will begin catching games on Wednesday and that is a big step forward in his rehab process.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (4/30/18): MLB DFS Lineups

For Monday, we’re working with a 10-game slate, beginning at 7:05pm, on DraftKings. This means one game is not included on the ticket: TEX/CLE (6:10pm). No Trevor Bauer for us. No worries.

Week 5 Waiver Wire Watch List

With a month in the books for 2018 we're starting to get some more clarity. We know that Didi Gregorius is the new Aaron Judge, Gerrit Cole is the most untouchable pitcher in the world and everyone on the Oakland A's can mash. Ok, so we aren't really any further ahead than we thought. Even […]

Jonathan Villar Fails To Record A Hit In Series vs. Cubs

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jonathan Villar went 0-for-8 in three starts for the Brewers in the series against the Chicago Cubs. During the series, he also only walked once in the last game.

Zach Davies Misses Quality Start By One Out

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies went 5 2/3 innings pitched, giving up five hits, two runs, and two walks while striking out three in the 2-0 loss to the Chicago Cubs. Like Junior Guerra and Chase Anderson in their last starts against the Cubs this series, Davies was destined to lose from the start […]

Brent Suter To Move To The Bullpen

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Brent Suter will move to the bullpen after the addition of Wade Miley to the 40 man roster and rotation. This season, Suter is rocking a 5.34 ERA, 1-2 record and a 1.42 WHIP, which certainly aren't the most impressive numbers. Due to Junior Guerra being an excellent addition to the rotation, […]

Week 5 Waiver Wire - H2H Category Streamers

I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked roster […]

Brandon Woodruff Throws Scoreless Inning Out Of Bullpen

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Brandon Woodruff threw a scoreless inning with two strikeouts in the 3-0 loss to the Chicago Cubs. Woodruff is a continuous project for the Brewers, as they continue to find out what role he is going to play for the Brewers. His main issue is that he's lacked a third go-to pitch […]

Corey Knebel Will Return Before Mid May

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Corey Knebel (hamstring tear) is projected to return no later than mid-May according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Haudricourt. He threw a bullpen session on Friday and will throw another one on Monday before most likely heading off to minor league rehab. He will be re-evaluated after his Monday bullpen […]

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Junior Guerra went six innings, giving up three hits, one run, and two walks while striking out six in the 3-0 loss to the Chicago Cubs. This is now Guerra's fourth start in a row with one run allowed or less, as he has only given up two earned runs in […]
