Brewers Manager's Gamers Quote
Brewers manager Pat Murphy called the team 'gamers' after sweeping the Dodgers in the NLCS.
“They may have a bunch of Hall of Famers, but we’ve got a bunch of gamers”
What Are Gamers?
Gamers refers to players who excel at the game, not necessarily Hall of Famers.
“We won’t try to identify gamers, a generally ambiguous term that somewhat aligns to 'playing the game the right way'”
Brewers' Young Team
Milwaukee has baseball’s youngest pitching staff and only three players in their thirties.
“It is, obviously, far too soon to know. Milwaukee has baseball’s youngest pitching staff, and only Christian Yelich (34), backup catcher Gary Sánchez (33) and first baseman (Jake Bauers, who turned 31 earlier this month) are in their thirties on the hitting side.”
Future Hall of Famers?
Will the Brewers have future Hall of Famers? The team has no current Hall of Famers.
“Do the Brewers have any future Hall of Famers? Will they?”
Historical Context
Only three World Series teams since 2006 lacked Hall of Famers.
“If we stop the clock at 20 years ago, through 2006, then there were only three World Series winning teams ever that didn’t have at least one Hall of Famer appear for them during that season”
Christian Yelich
Yelich, 34, is the closest to a Hall of Famer but likely won't be inducted.
“OF/DH Christian Yelich (34) The 2018 National League Most Valuable Player, and a very close runner-up the following year, Yelich, who turns 35 in December, is the closest on this team to having the story of his career mostly written.”
Brice Turang
Turang, 26, improved his performance significantly in 2025 and 2026.
“2B Brice Turang (26) A first-round pick in 2018, Turang’s first two seasons in the bigs didn’t necessarily suggest future greatness, as a good glove and excellent baserunning were supporting a well-below average bat, given that in a sport where a 100 OPS+ is 'average,' he was running a quite poor 75 OPS+.”
Jacob Misiorowski
Misiorowski, 24, is a top pitcher with potential but risks health and longevity.
“SP Jacob Misiorowski (24) This one writes itself, both the positives and potential downsides. 'The Miz' is almost certainly going to win the 2026 National League Cy Young, potentially unanimously at that.”
Jackson Chourio
Chourio, 22, is the most likely to become a Hall of Famer due to his youth and talent.
“OF Jackson Chourio (22) This is it. This is the one. Of all the current Brewers, this is the one most likely to be preparing a speech for an induction in the summer of 2049 or so.”
Brewers' Hall of Famer Question
The Brewers have no current Hall of Famers but could have future ones.
“Will we, years from now, at some far-off Cooperstown induction, think back to the long-ago season when the Brewers won 103 games and hosted the start of the World Series in their home park?”
What Happens Next?
Brewers' young players could become Hall of Famers, but the team lacks current legends.
“If we stop the clock at 20 years ago, through 2006, then there were only three World Series winning teams ever that didn’t have at least one Hall of Famer appear for them during that season”
What matters most
