Milwaukee Brewers: Orlando Arcia’s Impact on Crew’s Playoff Hopes
With a little over a month and a half left in the regular season, the Milwaukee Brewers find themselves in the thick of the playoff race.

Milwaukee Brewers need more from Orlando Arcia
The Milwaukee Brewers are legitimate contenders in the National League this season, but they need far more from Orlando Arcia. One player that the Milwaukee Brewers will need more production from down the stretch is Orlando Arcia. The glove-first shortstop was lauded as an Andrelton Simmons-esque defender while making his way through the Minors. However, […] Milwaukee Brewers need more from Orlando Arcia - Call to the Pen - Call to the Pen - A Major League Baseball Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Game Thread #109: Milwaukee Brewers (61-47) @ Los Angeles Dodgers (59-47)
First of a four game set at Chavez Ravine Let’s see if the Milwaukee Brewers (61-47) can have Freddy Peralta (4-2, 3.74) ready for the first inning tonight. Maybe getting the fastball over 87-89 mph would help? The Los Angeles Dodgers (59-47) send out Kenta Maeda (7-5, 3.27), the type of starting pitcher that will give the Brewers fits. Jesus Aguilar sits out a contest against a good slider. Milwaukee Brewers 1. Christian Yelich (L) RF 2. Mike Moustakas (L) 3B 3. Lorenzo Cain (R) CF 4. Travis Shaw (L) 2B 5. Ryan Braun (R) LF 6.

The West Coast trip begins...hope you can stay awake! Late night baseball tonight in San Francisco, and the Milwaukee Brewers (58-46) look to keep pace with the front running Cubs against the San Francisco Giants (52-51). Wade Miley (1-1, 1.56) is the starter for the Brewers, and SF goes with Derek Rodriguez (5-1, 2.72). Orlando Arcia returns to the big club from his stint in AAA. The defense will be better.

Milwaukee Brewers: Has Orlando Arcia figured it out?
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia was so rough at the plate that he was sent back to Triple-A to work on his performance at the plate. In his first time back in Triple-A, he only lasted four games before getting recalled. He’s been with the Colorado Springs Sky Sox for 14 games in his second […] Milwaukee Brewers: Has Orlando Arcia figured it out? - Reviewing the Brew - Reviewing the Brew - A Milwaukee Brewers Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Milwaukee Brewers Trade Targets: Brian Dozier
The former All-Star is going through a down season before hitting free agency this winter, but there’s some reason to believe he could be in for a big second half During the Brewers’ pursuit of Manny Machado, a lot of attention was drawn to just how badly Milwaukee shortstops were struggling at the plate this season. Much of that was due to Orlando Arcia’s massive sophomore slump, which has landed him in Triple-A to get back to basics with his swing mechanics. But second base has also been a problem this year. You can get by without production from shortstop if second base is solid,...
