What we learned in Arizona - The Pitchers
Wed, Nov 26 | Brew Crew Ball
What we knew: Jeffress is widely considered the top pitching prospect in the Brewers organization. The Brewers first round pick in 2006, Jeffress has accelerated through the Brewers system pretty quickly, and at age 20 he split the season between Brevard County (4.08 ERA in 79.1 IP) and Hun...

Sheets, Sabathia and Shouse offered arbitration
I like the moves. Sheets may be considered "risky", but I think it is a deal if he takes arby and stays with the Brewers... but I am willing to bet someone will offer him more elsewhere. Sabathia move is meaningless but provides the chance to restock in the draft.

Brewers Sign R.J. Swindle
It's time to scratch off one of the more promising freely available LOOGYs today. The Milwaukee Brewers have signed R.J. Swindle to a one-year major league deal. The contract is apparently a split deal, but Swindle will make the 400k minimum if he stays in the majors. Not only is that an awesome d...

Three members of the Brewerfan.net staff picked Matt LaPorta, who very well may have taken home this award had he not been traded as the major cog in the Sabathia deal. One took Alcides Escobar, who split the player of the year honors from the Milwaukee Brewers official minor league awards wi...

Wednesday afternoon mailbag
As for Zambrano getting his no-hitter in Miller Park…well, c’est la vie, I suppose. It was truly a double whammy that the Astros, being the home team, opted to use the visitors’ dugout for the games, as they were more accustomed to them…which meant the Cubs’ got to celebrate in the Brewers’ l...

Opinion: Robothal's Improbability Drive Kicks Into High Gear With Dodger Trade Noise
Via BTF comes this gem of Robothal genuflecty silliness, a possible trade for C.C. Sabathia: The Brewers aren't the only team pushing hard for Indians left-hander C.C. Sabathia. The Dodgers also are heavily in the mix, according to major-league sources.
