Have The Brewers Historically Traded Often In August?
Now that the trade deadline has passed, contending teams are gearing up for the stretch run in order to make their long-awaited playoff push. Non-contending teams, like the Brewers, will probably be calling up youngsters in an effort to give them a taste of the big leagues. Most transactions are also over — the deadline is typically […]
Michael Blazek: Effectively Wild or Lucky?
One of the few highlights in a dismal season for the Brewers has been its bullpen. Within that bullpen, one of the brighter spots and bigger surprises has been right-hander Michael Blazek. He was the last man added to the bullpen winning the spot out of Spring Training. I won’t lie, either. I thought it […]
David Cone and the Trade that Sunk the ’92 Brewers
During the 26-year playoff drought Milwaukee endured from 1982 through 2008, the 1992 Brewers marked the nearest miss. It wasn’t a team of stars — Robin Yount was 36 and had lost his power stroke, the starting rotation was led by such luminaries as Bill Wegman and Jaime Navarro, and Doug Henry closed his way […]

Game One-Hundred Eleven Recap: Cardinals 6, Brewers 0
TOP PLAY (WPA) Tyler Cravy successfully navigated the first four innings of Friday night’s game, holding the Cardinals’ offense scoreless. Things unraveled in the fifth. After Brandon Moss’s leadoff double, Stephen Piscotty hit an awkward soft liner to left field, which Khris Davis misjudged. The ball squirted past the Brewers’ outfielder. Moss scored and Piscotty […]
Just How Valuable Is Jean Segura’s Glove?
The trade deadline has come and gone, and Jean Segura continues to don the Brewers blue. While the team may try to move him during August, it looks as though he’ll stay in Milwaukee for the immediate future. My colleague Derek Harvey has covered Segura’s volatile offense, but I want to turn our attention to his […]
Game One-Hundred Ten Recap: Brewers 10, Padres 1
TOP PLAY (WPA) After Milwaukee took a 1-0 lead in the first inning, the Brewers and Padres remained locked in a stalemate for the next frame and a half despite putting men on the basepaths. The third inning was shaping up to look like the previous two as Matt Garza started things off by retiring the […]
Rolling Out the Barrel: Jungmann and Deadline Fallout
Happy Friday, folks. We all made it. Welcome back to Rolling Out the Barrel, where we promise to never ask you if God has called you for a chat recently. We’re a week removed from the trade deadline, and now that we’ve had some time to sort out how the organization looks after their biggest overhaul in […]
