It’s a Miz day. Here’s why the Brewers’ young ace finds his manager’s nickname of choice “hilarious” and is happy to run, Jacob run with it. www.mlb.com/news/jacob-m...
A nugget from pregame: For a while, Brandon Woodruff and the Brewers were targeting tomorrow for his return to the active roster.
Konnor Griffin needs one at-bat to graduate from prospect status, meaning MLB Pipeline will anoint a new overall No. 1 prospect as soon as tonight. (The Brewers’ Jesús Made sits at No. 2 as of this morning.)
New unis, same characters at AmFam Field tonight: Barrelman, Bernie and @dimtillard.bsky.social.
The Brewers will be wearing their new City Connects for all three games against the Nationals this weekend, then for Friday home games the rest of the way. You can see more previews at Brewers.com/CityConnect
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is the first time I've written about adult diapers for MLB dot com. If you're wondering about THAT radio ad, the explanation was in today's Brewers newsletter. You can read and subscribe here: bit.ly/3O2PKJr
From the Brewers this morning re: TV— exact channel information for cable/satellite is not expected until the day of Opening Day. For streaming info and FAQ, go to Brewers.com/watch.
“It’s an incredible story, because we didn’t think he was going to live. We weren’t thinking about baseball for a long time.” The Brewers play a Spring Breakout game today on MLB Network. If you need a prospect to root for, might I suggest Marco Dinges? www.mlb.com/news/brewers...
Brandon Woodruff says it was an "easy decision" to accept the Brewers' qualifying offer.
Here are the results of 2025 NL Manager of the Year balloting. Pat Murphy garnered 27 of a possible 30 first-place votes. bbwaa.com/25-nl-nmgr/
2025 NL Manager of the Year: Pat Murphy. Murph joins Bobby Cox (2004-05) and Kevin Cash (2020-21) as the only skippers to win the honor in back-to-back years. After two years as a big-league manager, Murphy is halfway to the all-time record of four MOY awards.

Behold, the 6:40 pm CT Friday night game. The Brewers just announced that all Monday-Friday home night games will begin at 6:40 pm in 2026. Subject to change, here’s the schedule with home game times.
Lights out on the 2025 Brewers. Aside from the first four games and the last four games, they were a hell of a lot of fun.
No one could have exactly predicted Jackson Chourio’s offensive excellence in the postseason. But the scouts who signed him aren’t surprised, and one of them, Luis Pérez, explained why. With @bastianmlb.bsky.social — www.mlb.com/news/jackson...
Pat Murphy was asked this afternoon about missing a chance to "steal" Game 1 after Blake Snell shut them down for the first eight innings.
Robin Yount wore one of the Brewers’ Bob Uecker-style sport coats for the ceremonial first pitch and pointed to the heavens on his way off the field.
Pat Murphy quoted Shakespeare in his pregame presser, so we have clearly reached the delirium stage of MLB’s postseason in record time.
The roof will be OPEN for Game 1 at AmFam Field, the Brewers say. Open sesame.
We have our first information about NLDS game times from MLB — at least for Game 1. It hinges on the Red Sox-Yankees ALWCS. Brewers’ Game 1 vs Padres/Cubs will be at: 1:08 pm CT if the Yankees advance 8:08 pm CT If Red Sox advance
Having already locked up the seventh postseason berth in eight years, third straight NL Central title, the best record in baseball and home field advantage all the way through the World Series, the Brewers had one more accomplishment in them. Victory No. 97. A franchise record.
The question was about the Brewers' hitting. Pat Murphy's answer was about the state of the team, and perhaps about some of the angst you may be feeling out there.
