Opening day of the 2023 baseball season is quite a ways away yet.  At this point in the offseason, the Brewers have made their first big trade.  Winter meetings are set to take place in early December.  During the meetings, we will all be waiting for a splash signing . Whether or not that signing happens or not, the Brew Crew has a lot of talented prospects knocking on the door of big league playing time.  In fact, in a recent article by a few writers at MLB pipeline they predicted that Sal Frelick could win the 2023 Rookie Of…

It has been less than 24 hours since the Brewers announced that they traded away Hunter Renfroe.  The trade was made with the Los Angles Angels.  In return they received three young controllable pitchers.  Matt Arnold has made his comments on the trade already.  Some fans have expressed their reactions.  Ultimately, the main question is did the Brewers get enough value in return? In order to answer this question, there is one specific trade that we will use in comparison.  That trade occurred a few weeks prior to the Hunter Renfroe trade.  It was the Mariners acquiring Teoscar Hernandez and…

Jackson Chourio had an incredible year on the ball diamond. Due to his play and quick ascension through the minor leagues, he has become one of the top prospects in all of baseball. Earlier this offseason, he was announced as the Carolina League MVP. Additionally, he was named to the MLB Pipeline Prospect team. Now, you can also add gold glove outfielder to his resume.

The dust has officially cleared following the contract tender deadline.  We now know which players were non-tendered by their respective teams.  On the Brewers, just four were non-tendered.  Across the league, there are a lot of newly available players to pick from.  In this article, we will take a look at three players that the Brewers could target. 1) 3B Brian Anderson    The professional baseball player Brian Anderson, not the Brewers play-by-play announcer, has spent all six of his seasons with the Marlins.  Unfortunately, injuries over the past two years have limited him and hampered his production.  With a…

In a recent free agent article, MLB Insider and Executive Reporter Mark Feinsand matched one free agent to each team. He clearly states that he is not predicting where players will land. Rather, it is an exercise to see which free agents may match a team’s needs. In his article, Adam Frazier was the player he chose to land with the Brewers. Below is Feinsand’s reasoning for his selection. Utility man Jace Peterson is a free agent, so the Brewers might be in the market for a replacement. Frazier has struggled since being named to his first All-Star team in…

This offseason Corbin Burnes trade rumors have been swirling.  The idea of trading Burnes rests on similar principals as to all the previous years of Josh Hader trade rumors. Of course, the Brewers did eventually end up dealing Hader.  This makes many believe that Burnes will meet a similar fate and with two years of club control remaining a trade this offseason would yield a big return.  In a recent fan mailbag article from The Athletic, a San Francisco Giants fan gave his belief on what a trade package for Corbin Burnes may look like. Here is a quote from…

Brent Suter spent seven seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers. Up until his recent departure, in which he was claimed off waivers by the Rockies, he was the longest tenured player on the team. Throughout his time in Milwaukee, he accomplished a lot both on and off the field. Brewers reporter Adam McCalvy shared some quotes from Suter after the news broke. It’s an emotional day for Brent Suter, who had a hard time getting through how much he will miss the connections he made in Milwaukee, from the Brewers to nonprofits like the Urban Ecology Center and so many others…

The tender deadline is always full of surprises. For the Brewers, they ended up holding onto 14 of their 18 arbitration eligible players. They also gained a new pitcher via trade in Javy Guerra. However, across the league there are now some intriguing players who are available. One of those is a former division rival relief pitcher from the Cardinals. That is Alex Reyes. The Brewer should look to target him. RHP Alex Reyes and OF Ben DeLuzio were not tendered contracts for the 2023 season.Our 40-player roster currently stands at 37. — St. Louis Cardinals (@Cardinals) November 18,…
