Brewers

On January 16, 2023, former Brewer infielder Travis Shaw announced his baseball retirement at age 32. The man known as the Mayor of Ding Dong City had enjoyed a short but memorable career in the majors - including a pair of exceptional seasons with the Brewers. 

Right field has been a revolving door for the Brewers, but some right fielders have delivered monster seasons for the Crew.

Love it or hate it, in the 50 years since it was adopted, the designated hitter has been a part of Brewers' history. Let's look at the five best over the past half-century.

The bench or utility players are often not thought of much. Sometimes, it's bad news for the team if they are a factor. Over a 162-game season, depth always plays a factor, and here are the five best "tenth men" in Brewers' history.

Over their half-century existence, the Milwaukee Brewers have been known primarily as an offensive-first ball club. But the franchise has had some outstanding pitchers over the years. Let's look at the five best.

At first glance, the major-league career of Cecil Cooper may seem statistically unimpressive. Slashing .298/.337/.466 (.803) over his 17-year career, and accumulating just 36.0 rWAR doesn’t necessarily roll out the red carpet to the Hall of Fame. Still, his legacy as a Brewer transcends the quantitative metrics typically used in recent discussions of past major-league careers.

Last month, former Brewer third baseman Sal Bando died at the age of 78 in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. Bando was an important figure in Brewers history. He was the club’s first major free agent signing and the team’s general manager for most of the 1990s. 

The Brewers have had some legendary closers in their 54-year franchise history. Let's look at the five best.

Closers may get the bulk of the credit out of any bullpen, but someone needs to pitch those innings between the starter and closer. Let's look at the best relievers the Brewers have fielded in the middle innings.

Wisconsin's weather might be in the 30s today, but BBtJN is in the mid-to-low-50s as we continue counting down to Opening Day.

Who wears #53 on the back whilst pitching for our favorite nine? I'm glad you asked.

The Brewers made a number of moves during the 2022-2023 offseason. With roughly a week before pitchers and catchers report to American Family Fields in Maryvale, Arizona, how did the Brewers do with the trades, free-agent signings, and other assorted moves they made?

One of the biggest heartbreakers for Brewers fans came on December 7, 1992, when Paul Molitor signed with the Toronto Blue Jays as a free agent. What if that didn't happen?
