C.C. Sabathia was the ultimate hired gun for the Brewers, and although they really did try to bring him back, the Yanks gave him 161 million reasons to bolt. Spring Training is underway and we’ll have actual boxscores to peruse come Wednesday! How sweet is that? With that in mind, we push forward ...

Best Free Agent Signings of 2009: Russell Branyan The Seattle Mariners December 3rd signing of Russell Branyan (one year contract at $1.4 million) kicks off this years edition of best free agent signings. Branyan is a left-handed power bat with less than desirable defense. While his D is below avera...

According to Ryan Divish of the Tacoma News Tribune, the Mariners signed infielder Russell Branyan to a one-year deal.  Branyan, 33 later this month, hit .250/.342/.583 in 152 plate appearances for the Brewers this year.  It's hardly an impact signing, but Branyan's still a solid pickup as...

The Brewers hope to improve upon their 3-3 mark against the Reds so far this season, as well as gain ground on the first-place Cubs who are 4 games ahead of the Crew in the NL Central. Pitching Probables : Friday, July 11, 7:05 p.m. CT: RHP Josh Fogg (1-2, 8.39) vs. LHP Manny Parra (8-2, 3.65) Satur...

Sunday was a day that nothing went right for the Brewers in a 5-0 loss to the Twins. Ben Sheets got rocked for five runs in seven innings pitched. All of the runs the Twins scored came with two out, never a good sign for a pitcher that he’s unable to finish an inning. Sheets struck out seven b...

Thursday may have been one of the most up-and-down games I have ever watched in my life. Dave Bush was only six outs away from a no-hitter but somehow the Brewers were only able to squeak out a win over the Blue Jays by a score of 8-7. Bush took his no-no into the eighth inning before giving up a le...

The Brewers won their third game in a row on Wednesday night and Ben Sheets improved his season record to 8-1 after the Brewers held on for a 5-4 win over the Blue Jays at Miller Park. Sheets continues his push for what will surely be a big contract in the offseason. He went six innings and struck o...

Someone cut Manny Parra in my fantasy league a week or two ago (yeah, usually it’s me that gives up on a pitcher early)…he is regretting that move now. Parra continued his impressive performance streak at Miller Park in ‘08, tossing 7 innings of shutout ball, allowing just 4 hits a...

The Brewers got off to a fast start in Colorado on Friday night and it appeared that the Crew’s win streak was going to be extended to seven games. It seemed like the win was all locked up until Guillermo Mota entered the game in the eighth inning. Mota did not record an out but gave up four r...

The 2008 Milwaukee Brewers reached the high point of their 2008 campaign Wednesday afternoon with their 10-1 pasting of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The win meant their 6th victory in a row, and marked their 10th win in their last 12 games, as well as their second consecutive series sweep. The Crew too...
