Brice Turang Is the Brewers’ BEST Hitter?! Jeff Levering on Lineup Shakeup

The Brewers lineup is shifting — and one name is quickly rising to the top. In this segment of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, Brewers broadcaster Jeff Levering joins the show from Detroit to break down Milwaukee’s offensive adjustments, including why Brice Turang is now hitting in the three spot and what’s going on with Sal Frelick. ⚾ Bryce Turang’s Rise According to Levering: 👉 Brice Turang is the best hitter in the lineup right now Producing consistently Driving in runs Earning a move into a key RBI role That’s why he’s hitting third — and it could stick. 😬 Sal Frelick’s Slow Start Frelick hasn’t quite found his rhythm yet: Still getting opportunities near the top of the order Known for long at-bats and grinding pitchers down But clearly still working to get comfortable The belief: 👉 He’ll be fine — just needs time to get going 🧠 Why the Lineup Is Moving With injuries impacting the roster: The Brewers are adjusting roles on the fly Turang moves into run-producing spots Frelick rotates through positions to find his rhythm 🔄 What Happens When Everyone Returns? Once the lineup is healthy again: Turang could shift back to the top — or stay in the middle Big names like Yelich and others will change the structure The goal: balance left-right matchups and maximize production 🧩 Pitching Perspective: Miz & Adversity The segment also touches on: Miz pitching well but taking losses Why wins/losses aren’t the best evaluation anymore And how early adversity can actually help long-term development
