| 1. | Brewers hire Randolph to be their bench coach Published: Nov. 8, 2008 - 6:11 p.m. - When he wasn't hired to manage the Brewers last month, Willie Randolph figured his chances of returning to Milwaukee were shot. But, he works in baseball, an industry where you never say "never." In an announcement that came as a surprise to almost everyone, including the former Mets manager himself, the Brewers tabbed Randolph to be the bench coach for manager Ken Macha. |
| 2. | Saturday Scorecard: As the sporting world turns... Published: Nov. 1, 2008 - 4:46 p.m. - For the second time in six years, the Brewers tried to hire Ken Macha. This time, it worked. Dale Sveum was gone, but now it looks like he's back. Aaron Rodgers got paid big bucks, while Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila was shown the door. |
| 3. | Brewers select Macha as new manager Published: Oct. 30, 2008 - 11:14 a.m. - Now that the World Series is over, the Brewers have moved quickly to name a new manager. Former Oakland skipper Ken Macha, who had been working for the Boston Red Sox broadcast team, will manage the team. A press conference is scheduled for 2 p.m. at Miller Park. |
| 4. | Sveum's plight a harsh reminder of reality in sports Published: Oct. 21, 2008 - 05:24 a.m. - For fans, following a professional sports team is truly an affair of the heart. For the people who make a living in sports -- like former Brewers general manager Doug Melvin, owner Mark Attansio and recently rejected interim manager Dale Sveum -- it can be a cold, cruel and heartless business. |
| 5. | Help wanted: Experienced big-league manager Published: Oct. 19, 2008 - 07:03 a.m. - Doug Melvin likes Dale Sveum. So did owner Mark Attanasio and the players. Despite a 7-5 finish and the franchise's first playoff berth since 1982, Melvin opted not to bring Sveum back as skipper in 2009 and is instead hoping to lure a manager with successful big-league experience. |
| 6. | Brenly seems to fit the bill as Brewers' next manager Published: Oct. 18, 2008 - 4:54 p.m. - Based on the apparent criteria, the Brewers can halt their search for a new skipper right now. Cubs TV announcer Bob Brenly has it all: experience, a track record of post-season success, media savvy ... Still, it's not a slam-dunk. One of the only certainties in baseball is that the moves that seem logical, easy and obvious seldom work out that way. |
| 7. | Brewers to Dale Sveum: "Thanks, but no thanks." Published: Oct. 17, 2008 - 7:55 p.m. - The Brewers announced a trio of moves tonight. They gave general manager Doug Melvin a three-year contract extension that will keep him in Milwaukee through 2012, removed Dale Sveum from consideration for the manager's job and dismissed hitting coach Jim Skaalen. Melvin continues his search for a manager and experience could be a key factor in the decision. |
| 8. | Saturday Scorecard: A very important free agent Published: Oct. 11, 2008 - 2:23 p.m. - While Brewers fans continue to fantasize about the club signing CC Sabathia, another important free agent is hanging out at home in Hartland, waiting for the phone to ring. Pitching coach Mike Maddux's contract with the team is set to expire and -- depending what happens with the manager -- it's uncertain whether he will return to the club next season. |
| 9. | Brewers Notebook: Postseason power outage Published: Oct. 6, 2008 - 08:19 a.m. - A punchless offense brought the Brewers' postseason to a screeching halt. Now, it's time to reevaluate what went wrong, what worked and who will be back next year when Milwaukee tries to take the next step towards a championship. At the top of the to-do list: extending general manager Doug Melvin's deal and deciding whether or not to retain Dale Sveum. |
| 10. | Mission unaccomplished for Suppan, Brewers Published: Oct. 5, 2008 - 5:43 p.m. - When the Brewers signed veteran right-hander Jeff Suppan to a four-year, $42 million contract before the 2007 season, they were banking on his experience and reputation as a "big-game" pitcher. In one of the bigger games in 26 years, Suppan came up short and doomed the club to a season-ending 6-2 loss to Philadelphia. |
| 11. | Bush bails out Brewers with strong outing in Game 3 Published: Oct. 4, 2008 - 11:50 p.m. - George Bush bailed out Wall Street. With his team facing elimination, Dave Bush did the same for the Brewers. The right-hander allowed a run on five hits over 5 2/3 innings to keep the Brewers alive in the NLDS. The Game 3 start, though, was just another stop on a season-long odyssey for Bush. |
| 12. | Saturday Scorecard: History in the making Published: Oct. 4, 2008 - 10:15 a.m. - Two games into their first playoff run in 26 years and facing the threat of elimination in Game 3 against Philadelphia, the Brewers found themselves talking about 1982. Though they respect franchise history, they'd like to forge an identity of their own. Bench coach Robin Yount, a key figure on the '82 team, wants to help. |
| 13. | Transcript: Dale Sveum's Friday press conference Published: Oct. 3, 2008 - 4:06 p.m. - Brewers manager Dale Sveum told the media that he does not plan major changes heading into Game 3 of the NLDS. |
| 14. | CC to the rescue ... again Published: Oct. 2, 2008 - 05:06 a.m. - Down 1-0 in the National League Division Series, the Brewers are once again placing their hopes on CC Sabathia, who will pitch for the fourth straight time on just three days' rest. |
| 15. | Transcript: Dale Sveum's Tuesday press conference Published: Sept. 30, 2008 - 12:14 p.m. - Brewers interim manager Dale Sveum met with reporters before his team worked out this afternoon at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. He talked about his team, his pitching staff and the change in his life since he took over as manager. "It's something I've prepared for since I got done playing," Sveum said. |
| 16. | Gallardo to start Game 1; NLDS roster not yet set Published: Sept. 30, 2008 - 05:07 a.m. - Yovani Gallardo has made just 21 starts in his brief and injury-interrupted career. His 22nd, though, will be the biggest. He'll take the mound Wednesday when the Brewers open the National League Division Series against the Phillies at Citizens Bank Ballpark. |
| 17. | Brewers Notebook: Sveum brought relaxed attitude Published: Sept. 29, 2008 - 05:02 a.m. - Dale Sveum had already etched his name in the Brewers' history books before he took over as interim manager. |
| 18. | It wasn't exactly a golden day for Sheets, Brewers Published: Sept. 27, 2008 - 7:53 p.m. - On the eighth anniversary of his gold-medal winning performance at the Sydney Olympics, Ben Sheets took the mound with a balky elbow and dug the Brewers into an early hole from which they could not escape. The Cubs won, 7-3, putting the Brewers in a tie for the National League wild-card heading into the final game of the season. |
| 19. | Gallardo's comeback performance boosts Brewers Published: Sept. 26, 2008 - 12:02 a.m. - Five months after rupturing a ligament in his right knee, Yovani Gallardo returned to the mound in a do-or-die game and gave the Brewers four solid innings that set the stage for a pivotal 5-1 victory over Pittsburgh. Think Curt Schilling, but without the Boston-New York hype or the bloody sock. |
| 20. | Sabathia brings Brewers even in wild-card race Published: Sept. 25, 2008 - 05:04 a.m. - Making his second consecutive start on short rest, Sabathia was downright masterful, allowing just a run on five hits in seven innings of work as the Brewers beat the Pirates, 4-2, in front of 31,164 towel-waving fans at Miller Park. The Brewers are now tied with New York for the National League wild card. |
| 21. | Hall, Weeks back in lineup vs. Pirates lefty Maholm Published: Sept. 24, 2008 - 3:55 p.m. - Bill Hall and Rickie Weeks return to the starting lineup tonight when the Brewers face Pittsburgh in game two of a three-game series. |
| 22. | Brewers get little things right in big victory Published: Sept. 24, 2008 - 05:28 a.m. - Showing a sense of urgency and a spirit largely missing during the September swoon, the Brewers played one of their best games of the season to beat Pittsburgh, 7-5, and keep pace with the Mets in the NL wild-card race. |

With six games to play, they'll need to win out if they want to play baseball in October. |
| 24. | Sheets leaves early; bullpen holds on for victory Published: Sept. 18, 2008 - 05:09 a.m. - Seven solid innings from the bullpen and an early performance from the offense made up for a short night by Ben Sheets and snapped the Brewers five-game losing streak. |
| 25. | More of the same in Sveum's first time out Published: Sept. 17, 2008 - 05:03 a.m. - They had a new manager. A different lineup. And their ace on the mound. Still, none of that was enough to help the Brewers snap their losing ways and they now trail the Mets in the Wild Card race. |
