With his drastically improved performance at the plate this year, the Brewers have finally been able to unleash the full might of their middle infield speed demon.

Bill Parsons won 26 games in his first two years as a Milwaukee Brewer. Big things were expected, but a shoulder injury and bad advice knocked him out of baseball by age 27. What happened?

The four Brewers minor league affiliates played their Friday evening games opposite a very tight and nail-biting parent club victory in St. Louis. For those of us (raises hand) who track their Twitter feeds while taking in the big-league contest, we were treated to a variety of video clips provided by each of the farm clubs. We are so spoiled in this regard in 2024. This veteran Link Reporter (oh my, since 2001, really?) thinks back to those early days, long before MiLB placed all minor league team websites under one umbrella and streamlined operations from a video and audio perspective. Reports were culled pretty much purely from box scores and game logs from locales such as Huntsville, Brevard County, West Virginia, and late nights listens from High Desert. Ah, memories...

After finally enjoying a day off, the Brewers return to the field to face their division rivals, the St. Louis Cardinals. It's an inauspicious start for St. Louis who sit at the bottom of the NL Central. Will the squad led by veteran talents flip the script for St. Louis, or will the youth movement out of Milwaukee further pad the lead in the Central? Let's dig in.

Some lows finally came with the ups. Christian Yelich is hurt and the injuries are starting to pile up. Was there anything positive to take from this week? Absolutely. Let's review the week quickly, as the team heads to St. Louis to take on those dirty birds.

Bradley Blalock kept his season ERA spotless in Biloxi’s win, while Bishop Letson and Luis Castillo led Carolina to victory. It was truly a team effort for Nashville, while Wisconsin fell just short.

Draft tandem Jeremy Nygaard and JD Cameron team up for a podcast to discuss prospects on their way to the big leagues and the MLB draft, produced by Theo Tollefson.

The vagaries of the early schedule have led to a weird phenomenon: the Milwaukee Brewers have barely seen left-handed pitchers at all. It's bizarre and unsustainable, but it's probably also good news for the Crew.

Despite some concerns before the start of the season, Milwaukee’s lineup has been knocking it out of the park in the early going. The question is, is this a true vision of the team’s future, or a cruel mirage?

It was an action-packed five-game day. The affiliates managed a fantastic 4-1 mark. The T-Rats split their double-header. The Mudcats, Sounds, and Shuckers all managed to pull away late in different and exciting ways. Bullpens continued to dominate in key spots. And, sadly, as I watched it all unfold I was lamenting possibly witnessing another keystone prospect suffer a serious injury. I won't speculate further until we know more. Maybe we avoided another fluke injury diving back to first base? I'll certainly include the video timestamp information should you want to review Eric Brown Jr. leaving gingerly after he threw to first on a dynamic play in the early going versus Chattanooga.

Without further theatrics, let's get into the report!

Wednesday's bullpen game shutout demonstrated that while the Brewers' pitching staff has lost some firepower from last year, elite defense can still help this group succeed.

The Milwaukee Brewers are going to spend the whole season mixing and matching pitching options. Thanks to some injuries and a densely packed schedule, they need some bridge innings, so they've called up a righty who has seized the attention of pitching nerds everywhere.

After a scorching start to his 2024 season, the Milwaukee Brewers' star left fielder suffered a low back strain that forced the team to put him on the injured list. How long until they'll be whole again?

The Brewers have benefitted from significant batted-ball luck during their recent offensive tear, but they’ve also made at least one improvement that should hold up throughout the season.

With the Timber Rattlers rained out, we still witnessed some wild innings of baseball throughout the evening. We saw some good. We definitely saw some bad. In the end, we had a mixed bag of results. As they say: that's baseball. We'll touch on a little bit of all of it below but, suffice it to say, as my title indicates: the pitching continues to impress across the system in a very big way. Let's get into the report!

Though the Milwaukee Brewers lost Monday night, the silver linings were bright enough to make the day feel positively sunny. The biggest one was their rookie phenom, whose night at the plate was scintillating.

The Milwaukee Brewers got some bad news from the farm right away this spring, with injuries to three key prospects. But do they have reasons to feel good about some of the prospects in their minor-league system, despite top guys being sidelined?
