Tobias Myers was one of four players involved in the Milwaukee Brewers and New York Mets blockbuster this off-season. Freddy Peralta was the headliner, but Myers was moved in the same transaction, with Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat coming back the other way as the return package. Unsurprisingly, much of the attention has centered on Peralta, how he’ll perform in New York during a contract year, and whether the Mets might pursue an extension before he reaches free agency. There’s also been considerable debate about how Milwaukee plans to deploy Sproat, as well as whether they’ll start the service-time clock…

Utility infielder Luis Rengifo is heading to the Milwaukee Brewers. The former long time Los Angeles Angel has signed a one year deal with the team, that includes a mutual option for 2027. Reportedly his base salary for 2026 will be $3.5 million, with the ability to earn $1.5 million more in incentives. The second year option is valued at $10.0 million. With experience at third base, second base, shortstop and all three outfield spots last season, Rengifo’s versatility is a significant asset, even if the advanced defensive metrics suggest he hasn’t necessarily excelled at any one position. Most notably,…

Over the last 10 years, three Milwaukee Brewers first round draft picks have panned out to be everyday players. Those players are Brice Turang (2018), Garrett Mitchell (2020), and Sal Frelick (2021). The jury is still out on more recent picks such as Andrew Fisher (2025), Braylone Payne (2024), and Brock Wilken (2023), but at this point it’s also fair to say that some of these picks have not panned out. Eric Brown Jr (2022) hasn’t lived up to the hype, Ethan Small (2019) failed to carve out a roll in the big leagues, and Keston Hiura (2017) had a…

Followers of the Milwaukee Brewers from 2016-2022 will remember Brent Suter, otherwise known as The Raptor. The soft throwing southpaw worked a remarkably quick pace, which was during the pre-pitch clock era, and he flung his long and lengthy limbs all over the place resulting in a deceptive delivery, which proved effective at neutralizing opposing bats. Suter went on to post a 3.51 ERA over seven seasons with Milwaukee. Afterwards he he spent a year in Colorado and then two in Cincinnati. Last year was arguably the toughest of his career, posting an ERA over 4.00 for the first time…

The Milwaukee Brewers and William Contreras are currently projected to go into an arbitration hearing in order to determine his 2026 salary. Contreras filed at $9.90 million, which would be a record high for a catcher in year two of arbitration, whereas Milwaukee filed at $8.55 million, which ties the previous high set by Will Smith. While there’s no guarantee which way an arbitrator will lean, recent cases around the league suggest the system has been willing to reward elite players with massive paydays. Most notably, Tarik Skubal set a new arbitration record at $32.0 million, surpassing the previous highs…

About one month ago Milwaukee Brewers left-handed pitching prospect Frank Cairone was involved in a serious car accident. Per reports, Cairone was airlifted to a hospital when another vehicle ran a stop sign and struck his. The extent of his injuries is not publicly known, but Carione did personally post evidence of him taking a big step in his road to recovery. Milwaukee Brewers prospect Frank Cairone resumes light baseball activity after serious car accident After being hospitalized on January 2, Cairone remarkably posted an update on February 3 of him lightly throwing against a wall. 🚨 He’s back! 🚨…

In January of 2024, the Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers agreed to a trade where southpaws Bryan Hudson and Justin Chambers switched organizations. Hudson was designated for assignment following the addition of Yoshinobu Yamamoto, whereas Chambers was a former 20th round draft pick.  At the time of the deal, Hudson had just six games of big league experience underneath his belt. Despite this, he quickly became a staple in the Brewers bullpen, ultimately posting a 1.73 ERA and 14 holds over 63.1 innings pitched. Unfortunately, the heavy workload, the largest of his career, led to a decline in velocity…

Back in 2022, the Milwaukee Brewers drafted switch-pitcher Jurrangelo Cijntje as a High School prospect. As an 18th round selection, he ended up going the college route and threw for two season at Mississippi State. His first collegiate season was rough and composed of an 8.10 ERA, but in his sophomore campaign, he posted a 3.67 ERA over 90 innings pitched and ascended into the first round of the 2024 MLB draft. After being selected 15th overall by the Seattle Mariners, Cijntje had a rather successful first year in the pros, rising to Double-A, and posting a 3.99 ERA over…

A few former Milwaukee Brewers have been in the news recently due to their performances outside of the United States. First, former shortstop Alcides Escobar was named MVP of the championship series in the Dominican Professional Baseball League’s (LIDOM). Secondly, and more recently, Hernan Perez has been doing all he can to keep his team in the finals of the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League (Liga Venezolana de Béisbol Profesional, or LVBP).  Former Milwaukee Brewers super utility man turning head in the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League (LVBP) In typical Brewers fashion, the team in 2015 turned Hernán Pérez, a waiver claim…
