Hello, forum!  Welcome to the All Star Break edition of Forum Friday.  And based upon the Brewers weekend series against the Giants, the break may have come at the right time.

Another week, and the NL Central leading Brewers sort of ho-hummed their way to a 5-1 record.  Taking care of business against bad teams is important for teams with big aspirations.  And while the 2022 Brewers aren't without blemishes, after a month it should be clear they have big aspirations.  And the Brewer Fanatic forum knows it.

Let's start off this week's Forum Friday with an apology. Having been a Brewer fan for over 40 years, I should know better than to call a 5-1 week "ho hum".  This weeks 1-5 record is clearly karma reminding me I should never take the Brewers winning baseball games for granted.  You can put the blame for this past week squarely on me. 

Greetings, forum!  After a rough week, the Brewers bounced back nicely, winning four-of-six last week and stretching their lead in the NL Central to four games over the second-place Cards.  Milwaukee won Wednesday in thrilling fashion, getting key contributions from players who were not on the big league roster when the forum week started on May 13.  Trevor Kelly's first major league win and Keston Hiura's walk-off blast are a great reminder there is more to the Brewers than Milwaukee and there is more to Brewer Fanatic than our major league forum.

On March 13th, 2022, Brewer Fan became Brewer Fanatic. We have a lot to celebrate; join us!

Prior to yesterday’s game against the San Diego Padres, the Milwaukee Brewers placed right-handed pitcher Freddy Peralta on the injured list with a strained right lat muscle. The move was accompanied by a cascading effect among the pitchers.

Just a day after the Milwaukee Brewers were dealt a significant blow to their rotation with Freddy Peralta being placed on the injured list, slugger Hunter Renfroe suffered the same fate.

Greetings, Forum.  Your first place Milwaukee Brewers had another good week on the field, winning four of six during the forum week, with results from tonight's game against the Cards pending.  Unfortunately, the week wasn't without its challenges, especially on the injury front.  Let's take a look at how the community responded the events of the past week.

Greetings, Forum.  This past forum week has seen another starter land on the injured list, this time Brandon Woodruff with an Adames-like high ankle sprain.  His injury, along with Freddy Peralta's from last week, and a double-header against the Cubs, lead to a flurry of roster activity for the Brewers.  Let's look back at the week that was.

Hi, Brewers fans! I’m Matt Trueblood. I wanted to take a minute to say hello, because hopefully, we’ll be seeing a lot of each other in the coming weeks and months. I’m joining Brewer Fanatic in a writing and semi-editorial role, with the goal of helping this community continue to grow and thrive as the best Brewers destination online.
