Brewers' Andrew Fischer: Flashing Power at High-A
Rotowire | May 7, 2026
Fischer has gone 9-for-40 (.225) with six home runs, two doubles, 10 RBI and a 4:21 BB:K over his last 10 games with High-A Wisconsin.
Fischer went yard just once over his first 15 games of the season, but the extra-base hits have been coming in bunches in recent weeks.
While the power is not a concern for Fischer, his 39.1 percent strikeout percentage on the season is a concern. He may need to make some strides in that department before the Brewers move him up the ranks.
Brewers' Andrew Vaughn: Clubs First Homer of Season
Rotowire | May 6, 2026
Vaughn went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Cardinals.
In just his second game back from a hamate bone injury he suffered on Opening Day, Vaughn launched an Andre Pallante fastball over the left-field wall for his first long ball of the season.
The first baseman had an outstanding finish to the 2025 campaign after being acquired from the White Sox, slashing .308/.375/.493 with nine homers over 64 regular-season games for the Brewers. He hasn't yet gotten a chance to show he can repeat that level of performance in 2026.
Brewers' Brandon Sproat: Inefficient in No-Decision
Rotowire | May 6, 2026
Sproat didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Cardinals, allowing one hit and three walks over four scoreless innings while striking out five.
The young right-hander needed 76 pitches (42 strikes) to record 12 outs, getting lifted short of his first career MLB win despite having been staked to a 4-0 lead in the first inning.
After giving up 11 runs over his first two starts of the year, Sproat has settled in a bit across his past five outings with a 3.38 ERA. Overall this season, he has a 5.87 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 30:18 K:BB through 30.2 innings.
His next outing is scheduled to come at home early next week against the Padres.
