Back to EpisodesBrewers Bullpen Velocity Drop: A Cause for Concern
Description
Brewers Top Bullpen Arms Showing Velocity Drops: The Milwaukee Brewers top bullpen arms, Trevor Megill, Jared Koenig, and Abner Uribe, are experiencing significant drops in fastball velocity early in the 2026 season. This decline is steeper than the leagues average, with Koenig and Uribe losing 1.6 mph each, and Megill dropping 1.8 mph. The heavy workloads from 2025 and a short offseason may be contributing to this issue. While no major injuries have been reported yet, except for Koenigs elbow sprain, the pitchers stuff isnt popping, and hitters are making more contact. Manager Pat Murphy is carefully managing usage to protect the pitchers while maintaining wins. The Brewers must stay patient and nurse these arms back to peak, lean on their depth, and grind through the volatility before it worsens.
