Brewers

The Brewers Infield has had its ups and downs, but with some key contributors now healthy, we should see some of these grades go up over the second half of this year. But for now, let us know if they match yours.

On Sunday, the eyes of the baseball world will be upon San Diego and the Winter Meetings. Let’s take a look at what the Milwaukee Brewers need to accomplish this offseason. Obviously not all of it will be completed over the next week, but it is an opportunity to get all parties in one location, able to have discussions. 

Although Major League Baseball games aren’t currently being played, the action never stops. Today the Milwaukee Brewers lost left-handed pitcher Angel Perdomo on waivers to the Tampa Bay Rays.

Bobby Bonilla Day is often considered a time to mock the New York Mets for the $1.19 million they pay the former switch-hitting slugger every July 1. That being said, the Brewers, who face the impending free agency of Corbin Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, and Willy Adames, might want to look to Bonilla for inspiration, not mockery.

In search of a power bat for the middle of their lineup, the Milwaukee Brewers acquired outfielder Jesse Winker from the Seattle Mariners. His left-handed stick should play well at American Family Field, but some reports from the Great Northwest say he might not play nice with teammates.

The outfield, laden with veteran bats, was supposed to be the engine that drives the Brewers offense. But one of the pistons stopped firing, and the Brew Crew is searching for solutions. See if you agree with our grades.

Catching has been a quiet strength for the Brewers, especially after the team scrambled to address a banned substance suspension just before Opening Day. Check our grades and see if you agree.

With injuries plaguing so many regulars, bench players have been thrust into the bigger roles. Some have responded. Some, not so much. Check out our grades and see if you agree. 

Brandon Drury would have been a terrific addition when the Milwaukee Brewers needed a bat at the 2022 trade deadline. We'll never know the offers on the table, but the San Diego Padres ponied up with the right prospect, and Milwaukee moved on. As a free agent, all he would cost is money, and he looks like a perfect fit.

The start of the 2001 season was one that many Brewers fans had been looking forward to for a long time.  Well, actually, the 2000 season was supposed to be the one they had been waiting for, but due to the infamous crane accident lifting part of the roof of new Miller Park into place, we were made to wait one more year to finally settle into our new home.  

On Wednesday afternoon, the Brewers made a selection in the MLB portion of the Rule 5 draft taking right-handed pitcher Gus Varland from the Dodgers organization. 

Before landing in San Diego for the Winter Meetings, the Milwaukee Brewers swung two significant trades. Individually they look like quality trades, but the current roster construction is following a strange process.
