Where things stand
Logan Henderson has struggled in the postseason despite a strong regular season, allowing four unearned runs in Game 2 of the World Series against Tampa Bay after committing multiple defensive errors. The Brewers' rookie starter, who posted an 11-3 record with a 2.47 ERA during the regular season, has been less effective than usual in October, though Milwaukee's bullpen has compensated with dominant relief pitching to help the team take a 2-0 World Series lead.

Brewers' Robert Gasser shares MLB history with Sandy Koufax after dominant Game 3 performance
Robert Gasser pitched six shutout innings for the Brewers in Game 3 of the World Series against Tampa Bay, allowing only one hit and one walk, both erased by double plays. This performance made Gasser only the second left-handed pitcher to face the minimum number of hitters in a World Series start of six innings or more, joining Sandy Koufax who accomplished the feat in 1965. Through three postseason starts, Gasser has posted a 0.60 ERA across 15 innings while allowing fewer hits and walks than the Brewers' top two starters, Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson, despite pitching all his games on the road.
Reviewing the BrewQuinn Priester On Track In Recovery From Thoracic Outlet Surgery
Quinn Priester is recovering ahead of schedule from thoracic outlet surgery performed in June and is expected to be ready for Spring Training. The 26-year-old right-hander had a strong 2024 season with the Brewers after a trade from Boston, posting a 3.32 ERA over 157 1/3 innings with an elite 56.1% ground ball rate, though nerve issues and wrist discomfort led to his surgery. Priester is projected to earn $1.3 million in arbitration and could compete for a rotation spot alongside Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson once he completes his recovery.
MLB Trade Rumors3 winners, 2 losers from Brewers’ first two World Series victories of 2026
The Milwaukee Brewers lead the Tampa Bay Rays 2-0 in the World Series after winning Games 1 and 2 by identical 3-2 scores. Game 1 featured an overturned challenge on the final play and premature fireworks, while Game 2 saw the Brewers mount a four-run comeback capped by Sal Frelick's game-tying home run and Cooper Pratt's go-ahead single. The Brewers' bullpen has been dominant through two games, allowing just one earned run across 10 innings pitched despite starting pitchers Jacob Misirowoski and Logan Henderson being less effective than usual.
Reviewing the BrewBrewers erase four-run deficit, take 2-0 World Series lead
The Brewers overcame a four-run deficit to defeat the Rays and take a 2-0 World Series lead. Tampa Bay jumped out to a 4-0 advantage in the first inning against Milwaukee starter Logan Henderson, with Liam Hicks hitting a two-run homer. The Brewers chipped away at the deficit throughout the game, with William Contreras and Garrett Mitchell driving in runs early before Sal Frelick tied the game with a solo home run in the sixth inning. Milwaukee's comeback was completed when a shallow pop-up fell in for a hit in the late innings, allowing the Brewers to take the lead.
Brew Crew BallWorld Series Game 2 Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (1-0) vs. Tampa Bay Rays (0-1)
The Brewers won Game 1 despite allowing a ninth-inning run, and now face the Rays' ace Drew Rasmussen in Game 2. Rasmussen has been dominant this postseason with a 1.29 ERA, 23 strikeouts, and just three walks across three starts, and he'll have extra rest after Tampa Bay used number-three starter Nick Martinez in the series opener. Milwaukee counters with Logan Henderson, who has struggled in the playoffs with unearned runs affecting his performance despite a strong regular season. The Brewers are keeping the same lineup from Game 1, while the Rays insert second baseman Richie Palacios, who is batting .364 in the postseason.
Brew Crew BallLogan Henderson's incredible streak at American Family Field is on the line in Game 2 of World Series
The Milwaukee Brewers will start rookie Logan Henderson in Game 2 of the World Series against the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday, seeking to extend their unbeaten streak at home to 13 games. Henderson is 8-0 in 12 career starts at American Family Field and will face Rays ace Drew Rasmussen, who has a 1.29 ERA across three postseason starts this year. Henderson's last outing in the NLCS against the Dodgers was marred by fielding errors despite the Brewers winning, and he has never allowed more than three earned runs in a major league start.
Reviewing the BrewBrewers and Rays' World Series MVP odds offer several long-shot possibilities
The Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays are set to compete in the 2026 World Series, with William Contreras and Jackson Chourio listed as co-favorites for World Series MVP at +700 odds, followed by NLCS MVP Jake Bauers at +750. Unlike most years, no single player emerges as a clear frontrunner, with several long-shot candidates like pitchers Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson potentially moving into contention with strong performances. History shows that World Series MVP awards often go to unexpected players rather than the favored team's star power hitter or ace, making prediction particularly difficult.
Reviewing the Brew3 in-season roster moves that shaped the Brewers' 2026 National League pennant win
The Milwaukee Brewers swept the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS to reach the World Series. The team made several key in-season roster moves that contributed to their success, including promoting rookies Cooper Pratt and Luis Lara, who both signed long-term extensions before debuting in June and July respectively. Pitcher Shane Drohan was called up in April and appeared in 124.2 innings across 19 starts and 14 relief appearances, while pitcher Logan Henderson posted an 11-3 record with a 2.47 ERA in 18 starts during his rookie-eligible season.
Reviewing the BrewUnderwhelming performance from Brewers' starting duo makes NLCS sweep of Dodgers even more impressive
The Brewers swept the Dodgers in the NLCS to reach the World Series for the first time since 1982, despite subpar performances from their two starting pitchers. Jacob Misiorowski threw 94 pitches in just 4.1 innings in Game 1, allowing five hits and three walks while his fastball lacked the velocity it had during the regular season due to late-season fatigue. Logan Henderson made his second career postseason start in Game 2, allowing two earned runs on two walks and three hits in four innings, including a first-inning wild pitch and a throwing error on a pick-off attempt. Neither pitcher met the high expectations set for them during the regular season, yet the Brewers' overall performance was strong enough to defeat the back-to-back World Series champion Dodgers.
Reviewing the BrewBrewers' dominant NLCS victory over Dodgers vindicates Matt Arnold’s trade deadline strategy
The Milwaukee Brewers swept the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS, validating general manager Matt Arnold's trade deadline approach of acquiring multiple role players rather than pursuing a single star pitcher like Tarik Skubal, whom the Dodgers had acquired. Brewers deadline acquisitions JoJo Romero and Antonio Senzatela made significant bullpen contributions during October, though some additions like Dustin May and Lance McCullers underperformed. By avoiding the Skubal trade, Arnold preserved prospects Logan Henderson and Luis Peña, protecting the franchise's long-term future while still positioning Milwaukee to compete immediately. The strategy reflects the Brewers' organizational philosophy of sustained competitiveness rather than short-term all-in approaches.
Reviewing the Brew3 winners and 3 losers from Brewers' first two wins in NLCS rematch with Dodgers
The Milwaukee Brewers hold a 2-0 series lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS after winning Games 1 and 2 in contrasting fashions. The Brewers won Game 1 by a score of 2-1 behind three double plays and capitalized on mistakes from Dodgers pitcher Tarik Skubal and the bullpen, while Game 2 saw them score seven runs against Yoshinobu Yamamoto and seven relievers despite two fielding errors from starter Logan Henderson. The Brewers' bullpen has been dominant through the first two games, allowing no runs in 9.2 innings of relief while giving up just two hits, with reliever Aaron Ashby earning a five-out save in Game 2 after pitching in Game 1 the previous day. The series continues in Los Angeles for Game 3.
Reviewing the BrewWilliam Contreras' continued postseason excellence helps Brewers overcome early errors in NLCS Game 2 win
The Brewers defeated the Dodgers in Game 2 of the NLCS to take a 2-0 series lead, though Milwaukee's defense struggled early with multiple errors by pitcher Logan Henderson. Henderson committed a wild pitch in the first inning, a throwing error on a pickoff attempt in the third, and an overthrow on a sacrifice bunt in the fifth, allowing the Dodgers to score four runs. William Contreras provided the offensive spark, collecting an RBI single in the first inning on an unusually low pitch and driving in additional runs in the fifth to help the Brewers overcome their defensive lapses and secure a three-run victory.
Reviewing the BrewNLCS Game 2 Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (1-0) vs Los Angeles Dodgers (0-1)
The Brewers seek a 2-0 series lead in Game 2 of the NLCS, a milestone they've never achieved in franchise history despite four previous LCS opportunities. Logan Henderson, a 24-year-old rookie, starts for Milwaukee against Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who has dominated the Brewers this season and carries a 2.14 ERA across 11 postseason appearances. Manager Pat Murphy made several lineup adjustments, bringing back Christian Yelich and Sal Frelick to face the right-handed Yamamoto, while the Dodgers swapped Will Smith and Teoscar Hernandez in the batting order and inserted Tommy Edman at second base. The Brewers' bullpen has been heavily taxed early in the postseason, and an off day Tuesday provides some relief, though Milwaukee's hitters will face a significant challenge against one of baseball's most effective pitchers.
Brew Crew Ball3 reasons to believe this year's Brewers-Dodgers NLCS matchup will end differently than last year's
The Brewers face the Dodgers in the NLCS for the second consecutive year after defeating the Padres in the NLDS. Last year Milwaukee was swept in four games while scoring just four total runs, but this year their pitching staff is significantly stronger, led by NL Cy Young front-runner Jacob Misiorowski, who had the best single-season performance by a Brewers pitcher in franchise history. The rotation is also deeper than last year, with rookie Logan Henderson, Dustin May, and Robert Gasser providing additional options beyond Misiorowski, along with arms like Shane Drohan and Kyle Harrison available for the series.
Reviewing the BrewBrewers NLDS Game 2 notes: Logan Henderson rematch, Michael King matchup, bullpen availability
The Brewers lead the Padres 1-0 in the NLDS after winning Game 1 on Saturday, with Game 2 scheduled for Sunday afternoon in Milwaukee. Logan Henderson will start for the Brewers, looking to improve on his mid-August outing against the same Padres lineup when he allowed three earned runs over 6.1 innings before surrendering a two-run homer to Jackson Merrill in a loss. Henderson said he plans to review his scouting reports and film from that previous matchup as he prepares for the rematch. The Padres set a postseason record by fouling off 30 pitches against Jacob Misiorowski in the first four innings of Game 1.
Reviewing the BrewNLDS Game 2 Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (1-0) vs San Diego Padres (0-1)
The Brewers aim to take a 2-0 series lead against the Padres in Game 2, with right-hander Logan Henderson making his postseason debut against Padres ace Michael King, who allowed just one hit across seven innings in his Wild Card start. Milwaukee's offense, led by Jackson Chourio batting leadoff, will attempt to disrupt King's command after the Brewers used five relievers to cover the final five innings in Game 1. The Brewers will need Henderson to provide extended length on the mound, and the game will be played with the roof open under clear skies. Manager Pat Murphy has also named Dustin May as the Game 3 starter in San Diego.
Brew Crew BallBrewers announce 2026 NLDS roster complete with stacked pitching staff
The Milwaukee Brewers announced their 2026 NLDS roster with 13 pitchers and 13 position players, departing from the typical 12-pitcher format most teams use for best-of-five series. This decision allowed the Brewers to include both Kyle Harrison and Dustin May on the roster while forgoing a third catcher. Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson are scheduled to start Games 1 and 2, with the Game 3 starter still uncertain, making the extra pitching depth potentially valuable for the series against the San Diego Padres.
Reviewing the Brew2026 MLB Division Series Preview
The 2026 MLB Division Series begin Saturday with four matchups: the Brewers hosting the Padres in the NL, the Dodgers facing the Braves in the NL, and the Rays playing the Yankees and the Guardians taking on the White Sox in the AL. The Rays finished with the best home record in baseball at 55-26, while the Yankees advanced by defeating the Red Sox 9-0 and 9-2 in the Wild Card Series but have already used key pitchers Cam Schlittler and Max Fried. The Brewers feature a balanced roster with strong starting pitchers Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson, while the Dodgers boast top-five rankings in both offense and pitching despite having an aging roster with several players in their 30s.
Brew Crew BallHow Brewers starters Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson fared against the Padres this year
Jacob Misiorowski will start Game 1 for the Brewers against the Padres, while rookie Logan Henderson is slated for Game 2, though manager Pat Murphy indicated the latter assignment could change. During the regular season, Misiorowski pitched seven scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts against San Diego on May 13, allowing just four hits including two singles to Fernando Tatis Jr. Henderson also performed well in his regular season start against the Padres, though specific details of that outing were not provided in the article. The Brewers finished the regular season 2-4 against San Diego despite strong performances from both starters.
Reviewing the BrewBrewers to face red-hot Padres in NLDS after Cubs suffer sweep in San Diego
The top-seeded Brewers will face the San Diego Padres in the NLDS after the Padres swept the Cubs in the Wild Card Series, marking the first playoff matchup between these franchises. Both teams enter the series on hot streaks, each posting 18-6 records during September, though the Brewers finished their regular season with a franchise-record 103 wins. The Padres' sweep was powered by strong pitching from Michael King and Nick Pivetta, who limited the Cubs' top-ranked offense to just one run across 10.1 innings, combined with early offensive explosions in both games. The Padres will face a stiffer pitching challenge in the NLDS against the Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson, but their elite bullpen will be well-rested heading into Game 1 on Saturday.
