WHAT HAPPENED The core pieces of the Brewers’ offense stepped up and carried the day, as the team pounded out 13 hits, drew a pair of walks, and plated nine runs. Adam Lind launched his 18th homer of the year, though it was his first since August 11, so Craig Counsell and his staff have […]

What Has Gone Right In 2015
At the time of writing this article, there are only thirty-one games left in the Brewers season. Currently, Milwaukee is 56-75. Even if the Brewers were to go on an impossible thirty-one game win streak, they would finish the season 87-75, only one win ahead of the Cardinals’ current record of 86-46. Since May, the […]
Khris Davis Trade Comps
I’ve written a lot about Khris Davis this year. I guess I have a thing for underdog types, which describes Davis. He was never heralded as a top prospect in the Brewers farm system. I don’t think he even appeared on team-specific top-prospect lists. Thus, the fact that he has retained a starting role speaks to his […]
Adam Lind Falls Into A Slump
Coming to Milwaukee via trade in the 2014 offseason, Adam Lind looked to provide the Brewers’ lineup with another solid, powerful bat. For the overall season, he’s done just that and in doing so has filled the one-time black hole at first base for the Brew Crew. The two-run home run he ripped off Cody Anderson on July 22nd brought […]

Top-Five Offseason Trade Candidates For Brewers
As the waiver trade deadline comes to a close on Monday, the focus across the baseball community will turn to September call-ups. The Cubs are reportedly poised to promote Javier Baez — who, contrary to popular belief, is not a failed prospect and is hitting .315/.378/.522 with 13 homers in Triple-A this year — while […]
Game One Hundred Ten Recap: Brewers 4, Reds 1
WHAT HAPPENED The Brewers bounced back from a tough defeat on Saturday to beat the Reds 4-1 and take two out of three games in the series. The big story of the day was Wily Peralta. In his last two outings, he only pitched a combined 7.2 innings, allowing 10 runs, 15 hits, and only […]
The Blue Jays’ monster month and the 2011 Brewers
I am mesmerized by these Toronto Blue Jays. On July 28th, the Jays fell to 50-51 and eight games behind the Yankees in the American League East. After thumping Detroit 9-2 Sunday to complete a three-game sweep in which the scored an absurd 29 runs, the Jays are now 24-5 since dropping below .500. They […]
