Marco Estrada Loses Command In Five-Run Fourth

Milwaukee’s 5-1 loss to the Cincinnati Reds should be best remembered for the Brewers’ bats remarkable incompetency, managing just one run and striking out nine times against the Reds’ Bronson Arroyo. However, in the top of the fourth inning, it looked like the one run,… [More]

Alex Gonzalez Tears ACL; Who Replaces Him?

No Incentive To Trade Logan Schafer Now

Every spring training has a star performance from a player outside the roster of regulars. This season, it’s Logan Schafer. The 25-year-old center fielder has excelled in the first 10 games of the spring season, notching 10 hits in 18 at bats, including three doubles… [More]

New Depth Can Prove Worth Early
