Brewers acquire SS Adames and bullpen help for two relievers

May 21, 2021 By [email protected]

In a rare mid-May trade of significance the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday acquired shortstop Willy Adames and relief pitcher Trevor Richards from the Tampa Bay Rays.  Milwaukee sent relievers J. P. Feyereisen and Drew Rasmussen to Tampa Bay in return.

Adames is considered a good defender and should be an immediate upgrade over Luis Urias, who has struggled defensively at the position.  Adames is hitting .197 with 5 Homeruns for the Rays.  Richards has pitched to a 4.50 ERA over 12 innings with 16 strikeouts.

Feyereisen was a big part of the Brewers late inning relief this season, helping set up for Devin Williams and Josh Hader.  Manager Craig Counsell and GM David Stearns said Urias will still play, and take on the part of the “super” utility role around the infield.

Neither Adames nor Richards were with the team Friday night in Cincinnati, and it’s not known if either will be available for Saturday’s game.

Brewers blanked 3-0; Yelich top seed in Derby

July 4, 2019 By [email protected]

Cincinnati – Sonny Gray allowed only four hits in eight innings and struck out 12 Brewers hitters to help the Reds beat the Brewers 3-0 Wednesday night in Cincinnati.

Yasiel Puig stayed hot, hitting his 19th home run of the season in the second inning.  Brewers starter Jhoulys Chacin turned in one of his better outings of the season, allowing just two runs over six innings with eight strikeouts.

Milwaukee managed just four singles off Gray, and didn’t have major league home run leader Christian Yelich in the lineup.  He was given the day off.

Cincinnati has won two of the first three games in the series.  They sent Luis Castillo to the mound on Thursday afternoon against Brandon Woodruff.  The Brewers are still a game up on the Chicago Cubs in the National League Central Division.

It’s also been announced that Yelich will be the top seed in baseball’s Home Run Derby, and compete against rookie Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in round one next week in Cleveland.

Cincinnati – The Brewers bullpen let a 4-2 seventh inning lead get away Tuesday night and fell to the Cincinnati Reds, 5-4.

Milwaukee led 4-2 through six innings thanks to more home runs, as Christian Yelich, Mike Moustakas and Eric Thames all went deep off Reds starter Tanner Roark.  It was in support of starter Chase Anderson, who allowed two runs over 5.2 innings and just 72 pitches.

Freddie Peralta allowed a run over 1.1 innings, and Cincinnati tied it with a two out RBI double from Joey Votto in the eighth off Matt Albers.

The Reds winning run scored in the eleventh.  With two outs Yasiel Puig singled to center.  Jose Iglesias singled to right, sending Puig to third.  Yelich’s throw to the infield short hopped Thames at first base, as the ball bounced off his glove and rolled through the infield.  Puig took off and scored from third to give the Reds a 5-4 win.

Yelich’s homer was his 31st.  Moustakas’s was his 24th.  The Brewers are 45-40 and lead the Cubs by a game in the N. L. Central
