Newsbreakers

October 7, 2009

According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, GM Doug Melvin considers Casey McGehee to be the team's top candidate at third base in 2010.

Our View:

The rookie had a phenomenal season in 2009 hitting .301 with 16 homers and 66 RBI in just 355 at-bats and would make a more immediate impact that prospect Mat Gamel. Melvin stated that the team wouldn't move Gamel to the outfield, so he may be a trade chip this offseason for the Brewers to get some much needed pitching.

October 4, 2009

The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel is reporting that Brewers' rookie infielder Casey McGehee will have arthroscopic knee surgery on Tuesday to clean up his troublesome right knee.

Our View:

This procedure is pretty minor, and McGehee hopes that this surgery will help him in the future. He should be pain-free when spring training begins, and he will try to put together two straight solid seasons.

September 29, 2009

Rookie Casey McGehee will have surgery on his ailing right knee after the season, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. He should be ready by the start of spring training. He should continue to see at-bats for the remainder of the season.

Our View:

McGehee has had a surprisingly successful rookie season for the Brewers. He is currently hitting .304 with 64 RBI and 15 runs scored. He should have a good shot at being the Brewers everyday third baseman next year.

September 27, 2009

Casey McGehee will have his balky right knee examined by a specialist on Monday, according to MLB.com.

Our View:

He has now been out of the Brewers lineup two straight days. The appointment is to see if he will need offseason surgery, so he may play for the Brewers next week. In September, he is batting a scorching .350 with four home runs and 24 RBI.

September 18, 2009

Casey McGehee went 2-for-4 with an RBI in tonight's 3-2 win over the Astros at Miller Park. He hit a single and a double.

Our View:

McGehee raised his batting average to .306, and racked up 19 RBI over 17 games this month.

September 12, 2009

Casey McGehee was a one-man wrecking crew on Saturday night, going 4-for-5 with two home runs and six RBI, as the Brewers blew out the Diamondbacks 9-2 at home.

Our View:

Not deemed good enough by the Cubs after limited playing time with them in 2008, McGehee is now batting .306 with 15 home runs and 57 RBI in just 97 games for the Brewers in 2009. He has a real chance at winning the National League's rookie of the year award.

September 8, 2009

Brewers manager Ken Macha said on Tuesday that Casey McGehee will continue to play more than Mat Gamel at third base down the stretch, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Our View:

That likely has something to do with McGehee's week last week, where he went 8-for-25 with two home runs and 10 RBI.

September 3, 2009

Casey McGehee went 1-for-3 witha home run, a run scored, and three RBI in the Brewers' 4-3 win over the Cardinals on Thursday. McGehee's two-run homer in the sixth inning was the difference in the game.

Our View:

McGehee was the Brewers' best player in this series, as he drove in nine runs and homered three times in the three game series. He has been very solid for he Brewers' this season, and he looks to have a future on the Brewers' infield.

September 1, 2009

Brewers rookie Casey McGehee went 2-for-4, homered and drove in four runs in a 7-6 loss to the Cardinals on Tuesday night.

Our View:

McGehee has now homered in back-to-back games and is up to 12 on the season. His .296 average and 44 RBI will give him some votes in the Rookie of the Year balloting.

August 30, 2009

Brewers rookie Casey McGehee went 2-for-3 with a homer and two runs scored in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Pirates.

Our View:

McGehee is having a fine rookie campaign, but he's cooled in August. He's hitting just .241 this month with seven RBI.

July 9, 2009

MLB.com is reporting that Brewers' infielder Casey McGehee was not in the lineup on Wednesday due to some swelling in his knee. He is expected to be ready to go for Thursday's afternoon game with the Cardinals.

Our View:

McGehee was a little sore Wednesday night, and manager Ken Macha thought it best to give him the night off. He will be back Thursday, so if you have him feel free to plug him back in your lineup.

July 4, 2009

Casey McGehee had a monster day at the dish on Saturday in the Brewers' 11-2 win over the Cubs. McGehee went 4-for-5 with a triple, a home run, three runs scored, and five RBI. He was a double short of the cycle.

Our View:

McGehee has been a pleasant surprise for the Crew as of late, and he really put it on the Cubs today. He couldn't quite manage the double for the cycle, but still an outstanding effort.

June 29, 2009

Casey McGehee went 1-for-3 with a grand slam off Brian Stokes in tonight's 10-6 win over the Mets at Miller Park.

Our View:

McGehee is riding a five-game hitting streak, with three homers over the span. He should remain active in fantasy lineups while swinging a hot bat.

June 21, 2009

Casey McGehee got the start at DH in Sunday's game against the Tigers and made the most of it. He went 2-for-2 with his second home run of the season in Milwaukee's 3-2 loss.

Our View:

McGehee now has hits in nine of his last ten games, including six multi-hit efforts, and has his average up to .349 on the season. He's turning into a fine option in NL-only leagues.

June 16, 2009

Casey McGehee left in the seventh inning of the Brewers win on Tuesday with a sore knee according to the Associated Press.

Our View:

It doesn't sound too serious, but he could be out of the lineup for a few days. Stay tuned for updates.

June 13, 2009

Casey McGehee went 1-for-1 with a single and recorded the Brewers' lone RBI in Saturday's 7-1 loss to the White Sox at Miller Park.

Our View:

The Brewers only mustered three hits in the game. McGehee is performing well, as he has a four-game hitting streak, with three RBI over the span. He is worth a look for NL-only leagues.

May 19, 2009

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Casey McGehee will get his first Major League start Tuesday at second base.

Our View:

With Rickie Weeks out for the season, Manager Ken Macha is trying to mix things up. With lefties on the mound for the next two days McGehee will likely get both starts. He will hit eighth in the lineup and likely isn't worth any fantasy consideration.

March 31, 2009

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Casey McGehee has made the Brewers big league roster. He will be used as a utility infielder and can play third, second and first.

Our View:

McGehee made the squad because he flat out hit in spring. He has racked up six home runs and 15 RBI and is hitting .370. Still, as a reserve he has little fantasy value.

March 15, 2009

Casey McGehee continued a nice spring on Sunday with his third home run and two more RBI as the Brewers beat the Indians 6-3.

Our View:

The second baseman is hitting .400 through 30 spring at-bats and will likely continue to get a long look. With Rickie Weeks set man the spot and Craig Counsell backing him up, it will be difficult for McGehee to make the club, but he's making a more difficult decision than initially thought.

January 29, 2009

Casey McGehee re-signed with the Brewers on Thursday, according to the Brewers' official site.

Our View:

McGehee was claimed off of waivers from the Cubs in October, with who he played nine games in 2008. He only batted .167 in 24 at-bats with five RBI with Chicago. He did drive in 92 runs with Cubs' Triple-A squad, which is why the Brewers will take a long look at him in camp.
