Brewers

With several key players on the IL or unable to take the field, the Brewers play a four game set against the San Diego Padres. The Brewers are looking to hang on to first place as the St. Louis Cardinals stay hot, winners of seven of their past ten games.

With Major League Baseball getting back in full swing following the All-Star Break, Milwaukee didn’t take long to make noise. The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reported the Brewers have signed reliever Jake McGee to a major league deal. The club also activated outfielder Tyron Taylor off the injured list.

With less than a month left in the 2022 season, the Brewers find themselves outside of a playoff spot. With time dwindling, here are five ways the Brewers can find themselves playing in October for the 5th straight year.

With league-wide rule changes in place for defensive alignments in 2023, the left-hand-heavy Brewers offense could benefit more than others. We'll break down the numbers and see what, if any, advantage the Crew might gain from the new ruleset in the coming season.

With Jonathan Davis heading to the IL, a top prospect is filling the spot.

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. 

With Father’s Day upon us, I thought I’d get a little personal. This is a story of growing up without a father, how my love of baseball began, and how my father not being around was his loss, not mine. 

With apologies to Tom Jones fans everywhere, it's not unusual for great pitchers to take a step back on their path toward immortality. And not all great pitchers get to that place. Corbin Burnes in 2022 is going to take that step back, and we have three case studies that can help inform where he goes from here.

With Aaron Ashby landing on the IR and Woodruff still a little ways out, the Brewers only have four  starting pitchers on the roster. Chi Chi Gonzalez will likely make that five on Tuesday.

With a little over a month left until the 2022 MLB Draft kicks off, things seem to have started to settle down. And by “settle down,” I mean “players have stopped getting hurt so frequently.” (Immediately knocks on wood.)

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.

Willy Adames is a fan favorite. The question is, can the Brewers afford to extend him?
