Wade Miley made his first appearance of the Cactus League season, and pitched two very Wade-Miley-y innings: his fastball sat about at about 89 mph, he struck out a couple, and he induced weak contact. The Brewers didn’t have a hit out of the infield until the fourth inning, when Jake Bauers smoked one off the wall. But he hit it too hard: he was thrown out at second base trying to stretch...

An early look at the Brewers 2024 payroll

An early look at the Brewers 2024 payroll

Rick Scuteri-USA TODAY Sports The Brewers have trimmed payroll and will be just over the $100 million mark entering 2024 Over the course of the offseason, the Brewers made some major changes to their payroll. They traded away some of their top contracts and overall cut payroll. As the 2024 season closes in, the Brewers will have a much lower payroll to start the season. That could mean space to add during the season, or it could be a bad omen for this upcoming season. Unless the Brewers add a player in the next week or two, this will be their lowest payroll in several...
