Jhoulys Chacin Roughed Up In Brewers Debut

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin went 3 1/3 innings, giving up seven hits, four earned runs, two walks, and one strikeout. Chacin was facing his previous team last season and was historically fantastic at PETCO Park, however, tonight was just not his night. Chacin allowed home runs to Cory Spangenberg (two runs) and Austin […]

Ryan Braun Delivers Clutch Three Run Bomb

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun went 1-for-4, drove in five and hit a home run in the 8-6 win over the San Diego Padres. In the ninth inning when the Brewers were down by one with two outs, Braun delivered a three-run bomb off of Padres reliever Brad Hand to put the Brewers in the […]

Ji-Man Choi Optioned To Triple-A

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Ji-Man Choi was optioned to the team's Triple-A affiliate, the Colorado Springs Sky Sox, as the Brewers plan to use newly-acquired relief pitcher Dan Jennings in the bullpen. Choi undoubtedly has a lot of hitting potential, however, the Brewers are also crammed at first base with Ryan Braun, Jesus Aguilar and Eric […]

Jonathan Villar Out Of Lineup On Friday

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jonathan Villar will sit out on Friday against the San Diego Padres. After striking out two times in three at-bats and eventually being replaced by Eric Sogard, it appears Brewers manager Craig Counsell was not impressed with Villar's game Thursday night. The team is also facing a left-handed pitcher Friday. Hernan Perez will […]

Christian Yelich Has Productive Night In Brewers Debut

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich looked good in his debut with the Brewers, going 1-for-4 with one RBI, one walk, and one strikeout. Yelich was acquired from the Marlins for Lewis Brinson, Isan Diaz, Monte Harrison, and Jordan Yamamoto and had a solid Spring Training showing with a .360 batting average and a 1.044 OPS. […]

Lorenzo Cain Has Ideal Leadoff Night In Brewers Return

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain went 3-for-5 with a stolen base in the 2-1 win over the San Diego Padres. This was Cain's first game as a Brewer since his rookie season in 2010, where he started with Milwaukee and looks to be the ideal leadoff man that the Brewers needed. Cain is good to […]

Corey Knebel Blows First Save Of The Season Against Padres

Milwaukee Brewers closer Corey Knebel did not get his 2018 off to a good start as he gave up two hits, one run and had a strikeout against the Padres during a blown save. Knebel came into this game with a 1-0 lead and eventually gave up a single to Carlos Asuaje, who was then […]

Jonathan Villar Strikes Out Twice, Replaced Against Padres

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jonathan Villar went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts and was eventually replaced by Eric Sogard defensively in the seventh inning against the San Diego Padres. This is not the start that the Brewers were looking for from Villar, as many were projecting Sogard to start at second. After a disappointing 2017 season where […]

Josh Hader Strikes Out The Side In Relief

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader went one inning on Thursday, giving up one hit, one walk and striking out three against the San Diego Padres for a hold. Hader made his rookie appearance last season and pitched for a solid 2.08 ERA and 68 strikeouts in 47 2/3 innings pitched, so this is no […]

Chase Anderson Fantastic In 2018 Debut

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Chase Anderson was fantastic on Thursday, as he went six innings, only giving up one hi and three walks while earning six strikeouts. Anderson had a breakout year last season, amassing a 2.74 ERA and 133 strikeouts in 141 1/3 innings pitched and despite this start being against a weaker Padres […]

Dan Jennings Signs With Brewers

Free-agent left-handed relief pitcher Dan Jennings has signed with the Milwaukee Brewers and is pending a physical after being released by the Rays. Jennings is most likely being brought in as a result of lefty Boone Logan being placed on the disabled list and will serve as a middle reliever for the Brewers for the time […]

Jesus Aguilar Makes Opening Day Roster

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jesus Aguilar has made the team's Opening Day roster. Aguilar, who was claimed off waivers from the Cleveland Indians, was already a backup first baseman to Eric Thames last season with 16 home runs and a .265 batting average in 279 at-bats. However this year, Ryan Braun will start against left-handed batters […]

Eric Sogard Has Neck Stiffness

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Eric Sogard is dealing with neck stiffness, however, he is not expected to miss any time. In the spring training game on Wednesday versus the Astros, he actually ended up pinch hitting for Travis Shaw and went 1-for-2. Sogard is projected to be the opening day second baseman for the Brewers. However, […]

Travis Shaw Poised For Big Year In Milwaukee

Milwaukee Brewers third basemen Travis Shaw is poised for a big year in his second year with the team. After hitting a career-high 31 home runs, 101 RBI and slashing a line of .273/.349/.513, Shaw will look to produce similar numbers behind a much improved Brewers lineup. Shaw is projected to hit cleanup again like […]

Josh Hader Will Get As Many Innings As Possible

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Josh Hader will get as many innings as possible and was referred to as a weapon by Brewers manager Craig Counsell. Hader was brought up through the Brewers organization as a starting pitcher, so he's got the stamina to pitch a ton of innings out of the bullpen. In 47 2/3 innings last […]

Domingo Santana Will Need To Earn Right Field Spot

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Domingo Santana will need to earn his right field spot this season and will most likely compete with Ryan Braun for time. The acquisitions of Lorenzo Cain and Christian Yelich this year really cluttered up the Brewers outfield, so it comes as no surprise that there will be some competition. It doesn't […]

Lorenzo Cain Projected To Start In Center Field And Lead Off

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain had a solid spring training and will most likely have an everyday role in the outfield, primarily in center field for the Brewers. Cain slashed a solid .419/.479/.535 this spring, which is good news, as the Brewers will almost certainly use Cain as the leadoff hitter this year, so he […]

Christian Yelich Has Very Strong Spring Training

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich had a very strong spring training in his debut with the Brewers, totaling a .360 batting average, .484 on-base percentage and .560 slugging percentage in 50 at-bats. Yelich also hit two home runs and had 12 RBI. Yelich is pretty much guaranteed to have an everyday position in the outfield, […]

Brendan Gallagher Hits 30-Goal Plateau

Montreal Canadiens forward Brendan Gallagher scored two goals in the 4-2 win against the Detroit Red Wings. These two goals both simultaneously gave Gallagher his first career 30-goal season, but they also gave Gallagher a career-high 49 points. For someone who only scored 29 points and 10 goals in 64 games last year, Gallagher is […]

Nick Bjugstad Finding Success On Top Line

Florida Panthers forward Nick Bjugstad scored a goal in the 3-0 win over the New York Islanders. Bjugstad has been a key part of the Panthers recently-found success, as he now has eight points in his last 10 games and has 24 points in 27 games since the All-Star break. The line of Aleksander Barkov, […]

James Reimer Stepping Up Big Time

Florida Panthers goaltender James Reimer recorded a 32-save shutout in the 3-0 win against the New York Islanders. In the absence of Roberto Luongo, Reimer has been absolutely fantastic, registering four wins in four games with two shutouts and a .971 save percentage. Luongo will be back in action soon -- he was actually projected […]

J.T. Miller Has A Point Per Game With Lightning

Tampa Bay Lightning forward J.T. Miller assisted on a goal in the 4-1 loss to the Arizona Coyotes. Despite Ryan McDonagh being the key piece in the trade with the New York Rangers, it's not that hard to see why many would think that Miller is the main piece right now. Officially through 13 games […]

Matt Duchene Produces Assist In Win

Ottawa Senators forward Matt Duchene produced an assist in the 4-1 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. Since the All-Star break, Duchene now has 26 points in 28 games and has easily been one of the best forwards on the Senators this season. Duchene has also looked to build some chemistry with forwards like Bobby Ryan […]

Yovani Gallardo Released By Brewers

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Yovani Gallardo has officially been released, as confirmed by the Milwaukee Brewers on Twitter. With the rotation in Milwaukee set in stone and with the overabundance of pitchers capable of long relief, Gallardo did not really have a fit on the team. Look for him to sign a minor league deal with a […]

Jacob Barnes Will Pitch Out Of Bullpen

Milwaukee Brewers RHP Jacob Barnes will pitch out of the bullpen for the Milwaukee Brewers as confirmed by Brewers manager Craig Counsell. While Barnes will have very limited opportunities to get saves behind Corey Knebel and Josh Hader, he will look to improve from a 4.00 ERA in 72.0 IP last season. Expect to see […]

Carey Price Not Sharp In Loss Against Capitals

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price allowed six goals on 30 shots for a .800 save percentage in the 6-4 loss to the Washington Capitals. This has definitely been a rough year for Price, as he now holds a record of 15-23-6 while rocking a .903 save percentage, which is far off from his usual ~.925 […]

Jack Eichel Extends Pointless Streak To Four Games

Buffalo Sabres forward Jack Eichel has now extended his pointless streak to four games after not recording a single point in the 5-1 loss to the New York Rangers. Eichel currently has 54 points in 60 games this year, which, when extrapolated, is looking to be a slight downgrade from his previous season in which […]

Robin Lehner Pulled Against Rangers

Buffalo Sabres goaltender Robin Lehner was pulled in the 5-1 loss to the New York Rangers, allowing four goals on 12 shots for a .667 save percentage. It appears that Lehner is not the future in net that they were hoping he would be when they traded a first-round pick in 2015 (Colin White) to […]

Neal Pionk Scores First NHL Goal

New York Rangers defenseman Neal Pionk scored his first NHL goal on Saturday and also collected an assist in the 5-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres. After trading Ryan McDonagh, the Rangers are looking at any defenseman in the system to step up and Pionk has done so. This game now puts Pionk at a […]

James Reimer Solid In Start

Florida Panthers goaltender James Reimer allowed two goals on 28 shots for a .929 save percentage in the 4-2 win over the Arizona Coyotes. Roberto Luongo (upper-body injury) was not available for this game, so Reimer stepped in for the Panthers and delivered another solid game. In his last four starts, Reimer has allowed only […]
