Just like Jason Voorhees, never assume the Cardinals are dead. They always come back.
The St. Louis Cardinals were one of the National League’s most disappointing teams through the first half, but they’ve turned it around since the All-Star break. Now they’re coming up fast in the Brewers’ rearview mirror -- now just 1.5 GB of the Brewers for a wildcard spot -- turning this weekend’s series into one that’s more important than some probably figured it would be a couple weeks...
The Brewers may face something of a roster crunch entering 2019, or at the very least a potential wave of contractual non-tenders. A non-tender is a basic roster tool that allows the Brewers to release a player facing salary arbitration or a renewal contract for the coming season; these are typically players that can be released for little or no cost to the organization. In combination with the depressed league minimum and arbitration salaries, the ability to non-tender these players is what...

Brewers GM David Stearns and manager Craig Counsell indicated today that righty Jimmy Nelson is unlikely to make it back to the hill for the club this season. That conclusion was largely evident from the fact that Nelson had not yet begun a rehab assignment. Stearns acknowledged today what was becoming clear, saying that time is running short. Further comments from Counsell removed any remaining doubt as to the team’s expectations. While neither man would rule out the possibility that...

Another edition of the BCB Mailbag!
It’s been an up-and-down last couple of weeks for the Cream City Nine, and as play begins today they’ll be three back of the Cubs for the NL Central and in a virtual tie atop the Wild Card standings with the Phillies. The offense seems to have improved, but the pitching has all of a sudden...

Coming off a loss in Atlanta in which he allowed seven earned runs, rookie right-hander Freddy Peralta gets the ball for the opener of the Brewers' weekend series in St. Louis. He'll pitch opposite right-hander Jack Flaherty at 7:15 p.m. CT at Busch Stadium.
Junior Guerra and the defense falter
Well, Brewers fan, that wasn’t the ending we wanted to see. After three-consecutive shutout victories against the Chicago Cubs, the Milwaukee Brewers were beaten out of the Windy City in an 8-4 loss.
Our hero Junior Guerra carries most of the blame for dropping the second game of this two-game series. The 2018 Brewers ace allowed six earned runs in just 3.2 innings.
Milwaukee’s defense didn’t do much to help. The defense missed multiple diving...
The Brewers followed one of their most complete victories of the season with an ugly defeat, an 8-4 loss to the Cubs at Wrigley Field on Wednesday in which starter Junior Guerra was knocked out in the fourth inning.
Jimmy Nelson made great progress in his early rehab work after shoulder surgery, but still hasn't pitched off a mound.
It was no fault of Jimmy Nelson, who attacked rehabilitation with the same intensity he took the mound before shoulder surgery cut short his breakthrough 2017 season.
Right-hander Jimmy Nelson, who has been rehabbing from a shoulder injury, is unlikely to return this season, the Brewers said Wednesday.
Winning a second consecutive series in a row from the Cubs would be kinda helpful.
The Milwaukee Brewers (68-54) can pull within a game of the Chicago Cubs (68-50) by winning today’s game, and take their second straight series from the Pride of North Chicago. Junior Guerra (6-7, 3.40) tries to keep the Cub bats silent (and they have been VERY silent for the last three games against the Brewers). Juni G will face the Cubs’ Kyle Hendricks (8-9, 4.02). Lefties take over in the Brewer...
At this point in the season, it was more or less assumed, but the Brewers confirmed as much today
We’ve all likely inferred as much considering the Brewers have fewer than 40 games left to play in the regular season — and even fewer for minor league teams that may host a rehab assignment — but the team all but confirmed today that Jimmy Nelson won’t be able to make it back on a big league mound in 2018.
#Brewers GM David Stearns said team "is running out of time" to get Jimmy...

While the July 31 non-waiver Trade Deadline rightfully garners the lion's share of attention when it comes to each year's trade season, there have been numerous deals struck during the month of August that have been impactful down the stretch and in subsequent years. Here's a look at the best August trade each team has ever made.
Let's give it up for Cain, a long underappreciated player who deserves some credit for his big season
Another former top prospect is added to the fold in August.
David Stearns and the Milwaukee Brewers already used the waiver wire once this month to add a formerly well-regarded pitching prospect to the fold, claiming right-hander Ariel Hernandez from the Dodgers a week ago. The club dove back into scrapheap for a pitcher again earlier today, as Milwaukee announced that they had made a cash deal with the Philadelphia Phillies for righty Jake Thompson, who was designated for assignment on...

A Beautiful Wrigley Field Box Score
What a difference a day makes. The Milwaukee Brewers (68-54) scored the same number of runs (7) as they did in Sunday’s loss on eight fewer hits, and the pitching staff shut out the Chicago Cubs (68-50) on just three hits in a 7-0 win. The big difference at the plate...
