Milwaukee Brewers infielder\u00a0Caleb Durbin\u00a0joined\u00a0Wisconsin\u2019s Midday News\u00a0while traveling the state on a Brewers community tour, calling the outreach a meaningful way to connect with kids and represent the organization off the field. The Illinois native said this is his first real chance to be involved locally after arriving in Milwaukee following the offseason trade that sent\u00a0Devin Williams\u00a0to the\u00a0New York Yankees.<\/p>\n
Durbin reflected on being traded himself, describing how sudden the call can be and how bonds with former teammates never really fade. He also addressed the recent trade of\u00a0Freddy Peralta, noting Peralta\u2019s importance as both a clubhouse leader and cultural connector, while expressing confidence in the Brewers\u2019 long-term direction.<\/p>\n
Away from baseball, Durbin shared how academics shaped his path, recounting his time at\u00a0Washington University in St. Louis\u00a0and the high standards required to get in. He said those experiences are something he enjoys passing along to young fans as the team prepares for spring training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Milwaukee Brewers infielder\u00a0Caleb Durbin\u00a0joined\u00a0Wisconsin\u2019s Midday News\u00a0while traveling the state on a Brewers community tour, calling the outreach a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":533463,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2401],"tags":[5,136,3615,753,843,59,4280,4,4164,1519],"class_list":{"0":"post-533462","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-milwaukee-brewers","8":"tag-baseball","9":"tag-brewers","10":"tag-caleb-durbin","11":"tag-freddy-peralta","12":"tag-milwaukee","13":"tag-milwaukee-brewers","14":"tag-milwaukeebrewers","15":"tag-mlb","16":"tag-trade","17":"tag-wisconsin"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/115941381454391455","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/533462","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=533462"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/533462\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/533463"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=533462"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=533462"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=533462"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
