Brewers

The Milwaukee Brewers made a couple of curious moves at the trade deadline. In acquiring Taylor Rogers for Josh Hader, they also netted themselves former starter Dinelson Lamet. He didn’t last in the organization more than 24 hours. Pedro Severino saw a different fate following his DFA.

Sometimes a player is remembered for more than his performance on the field. Who can forget the handlebar mustache of Rollie Fingers? The antics of Mark Fydrich. The epic beard of Brian Wilson. The afro of Oscar Gamble. In this Brewer throwback, we look at the man with perhaps the greatest name in franchise history - as well as an impressive mustache - Billy Jo Robidoux.

Are the Brewers going to DFA several players at the end of Spring Training or make a move now to add another optionable player to the 40-man MLB roster? RHPs Tyler Cyr and Manuel Rodriguez are possible additions to consider.

There's a long way to go in the 2022 season, but the Milwaukee Brewers' Corbin Burnes is again on a Cy Young track. As is often the case with greatness, it feels like fans are taking him for granted. I implore you to admire and cherish each of his starts.

We hear 'It's a business' a lot when teams make moves or players move on. When the normal rules of business don't apply -- and they certainly don't apply to professional sports franchises like, say, oh, I don't know, the Milwaukee Brewers -- is it, though?

Brian Anderson provides the Brewers with a player with upside that also further crowds the roster. Does that mean another move could be coming?

The calendar turns to June and with that… the MLB Draft isn’t for over another month!? The later draft is certainly something that is going to take some getting used to. But here were are with another update. 

Last week, the first Brewer Fanatic mock was posted. This week, we’re going to cover some big news from last week as well as discuss selections from three other mock drafts.

Hoby Milner's breakout year has been accompanied by major changes in his pitch selection and how he attacks hitters. He's also made at least one big adjustment on the mound.

At times, the Brewers have seen some of their best players man the hot corner. At other times, it has been a revolving door where nobody nailed down the position.

After outrighting Pedro Severino to Triple-A late last week, the Milwaukee Brewers followed up with a handful of transactions over the weekend. Starting pitcher Adrian Houser began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville, while Jason Alexander was recalled to the big leagues. Jake McGee was designated for assignment, and J.C. Mejia was removed from the restricted list.

In a world of instant gratification and trouble seeing the big picture, it's important to have perspective in a 162-game baseball season. The Milwaukee Brewers have done phenomenally well, despite two straight losses to the toothless Chicago Cubs and what looked like a third consecutive defeat on the horizon Thursday.

Suddenly, in the span of a week, the Brewers have fallen out of the division lead. Prior to the recent cluster of losses, the Crew had an odd string of events at the trade deadline. Fans were quick to blame the front office and ownership, but I’m here to tell you there's other reasons for the slide.
