When is Devin Williams Coming Back? - Fantasy Baseball Injury Return Update

Devin Williams has not played a single game this season for the Milwaukee Brewers. During spring training, the star closer sustained a back injury, and he is currently placed on the 60-day injured list. The 29-year-old pitcher is arguably the best closer in baseball and had a phenomenal season last year. The Brewers have started […]

Tobias Myers Making MLB Debut On Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Tobias Myers is making his major-league debut on Tuesday and is starting on the mound against the Pittsburgh Pirates on the road. Myers was called up by the Brew Crew last week for pitching depth, but he never got into a game, so this will be the 25-year-old's big-league debut. Before his […]

Fantasy Baseball Frauds? Standout Performers Through Week 4

Baseball is a fickle beast. A player can be red-hot at the plate for a week, then go into an extended slump at a moment’s notice. Sometimes all it takes is one bad matchup to send a player into a funk, or for their timing to be slightly off. The same can be said for […]

Champ or Chump: Andy Pages and Jonatan Clase Fantasy Baseball Outlooks

Last week, we explored how prospect rankings don't always equate to immediate fantasy baseball value. You probably want to roster Jackson Holliday in 2028, but his chances of making a quick impact in our game are low. The converse is also true. Players who don't have much prospect pedigree may have just the skills your […]

Blake Perkins - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Adds

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: A few weeks ago, Blake Perkins was struggling to find at-bats. With the Brewers offense off to a hot start, there was little reason to shake things up by mixing in the 27-year-old outfielder. He started on Opening Day but didn’t make […]

Tyler Black Keeps On Hitting At Triple-A

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman prospect Tyler Black went 2-for-4 with a home run for Triple-A Nashville on Sunday. He also had four RBI, a walk, and a run scored in the contest.

Robert Gasser Could Return This Week

Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Robert Gasser (elbow) could be ready to pitch for Triple-A Nashville as soon as this week after being on the shelf for almost a month in the minors due to a bone spur in his left elbow. The Brewers could really use some help in their big-league starting rotation with DL […]

Bryse Wilson Likely To Move Into Rotation

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Bryse Wilson is likely to move from the bullpen into the team's starting rotation for now with DL Hall (knee), Wade Miley (elbow) and Jakob Junis (head, shoulder) all on the injured list right now.

Jakob Junis Hit In Head During Batting Practice

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jakob Junis (head, shoulder) was hit in the head by a line drive during pre-game batting practice before Monday's contest against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Wade Miley Put On 15-Day Injured List

The Milwaukee Brewers placed left-hander Wade Miley (elbow) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to April 19) with left-elbow inflammation on Monday. In other moves, the team recalled right-hander Tobias Myers from Triple-A Nashville, reinstated first baseman Jake Bauers from the bereavement list, and optioned infielder Andruw Monasterio to Nashville. The 37-year-old Miley started the […]

Joel Payamps - Closers and Saves Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Adds

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Devin Williams sidelined until sometime around the All-Star break, the closing job was up for grabs and it was presumed Joel Payamps would fill in. Then, after Abner Uribe converted three straight saves to begin the season it seemed like he would […]
