He is owed a good chunk of change over the next two seasons, however.
The Milwaukee Brewers will need to figure out what to do at first base for the 2020 season, and they are reportedly considering a number of different options. They’ve kept in contact with Eric Thames after somewhat surprisingly declining his club option for next season. The club has been linked to outfielders Kole Calhoun and Avisail Garcia, and if one of them is added, it...
The New York Yankees have already made a big splash in the pitching market, but they may not be finished trying to add an arm. According to Jon Heyman of MLB Network, the Yankees reached out to the Milwaukee Brewers to discuss a potential trade for All-Star reliever Josh Hader. Milwaukee, however, is not considered motivated to move their star reliever. Combined with Aroldis Chapman, Hader would give the Yankees a dynamite one-two punch of bullpen lefties. The asking price, however, is...

He finished last summer in the American Association after getting cut loose by Baltimore.
The Milwaukee Brewers have added a handful of arms to the organization in the last week. Always one to explore every possible avenue of finding available talent, David Stearns signed one “regular” free agent, veteran left-hander Brett Anderson. He also gave a three-year MLB contract to Josh Lindblom after the right-hander spent most of the last five...

He’s a relatively young outfielder who may still have some potential to unlock.
The Milwaukee Brewers need to fill vacancies at both third base and first base this offseason, and there are any number of ways that the club can go about doing so. One idea that is apparently under consideration is adding another outfielder to the roster, which would allow Ryan Braun to take a considerable amount of reps at the cold corner. Kole Calhoun has recently been...

Saying goodbye to some depth prospects.
Baseball’s annual Winter Meetings have officially come and gone for 2019, with Thursday’s Rule 5 Draft wrapping things up before the various beat writers, job seekers, and front office personnel headed back towards home. For the third straight year, the Milwaukee Brewers did not select any players in the Major League phase of the Rule 5 Draft. The club didn’t...
The Brewers announced a one-year deal with lefty Brett Anderson. Financial terms aren’t yet known. Anderson, who his closing in on his 32nd birthday, becomes the latest addition to the Milwaukee pitching staff. The club recently agreed to terms with Josh Lindblom. This probably isn’t the high-impact rotation move some would like to see the Brewers make, but that has simply not been the way GM David Stearns has operated. Anderson did put in a strong effort in 2019, throwing 176 innings of...

Changes in hitting approach hint at a diamond in the rough
Kole Calhoun became a free agent after the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim declined his $14 million option this past November following a 2019 season that saw him belt 33 home runs. With the recent signing of Anthony Redon, the Angels declining of his option was as much to do about freeing up money to go after a top tier free agent than anything else. Their loss might be another team’s gain if he is...

The Brewers are seeking a significant return and a deal is characterized as unlikely.
On December 1st, Ken Rosenthal wrote an article in the Athletic (subscription required) stating that the Milwaukee Brewers were making Josh Hader available for trade. Rosenthal suggested that Milwaukee’s reasoning is based on money: “In their never-ending quest for payroll efficiency, low-revenue teams often entertain ideas that, on the surface, appear to make little...
The Brewers have reached an agreement with free-agent right-hander Josh Lindblom, reports Jeff Passan of ESPN, adding Lindblom will earn $9.125M over three years. The deal can max out at $18M with performance bonuses, according to Passan. MLB Network’s Jon Heyman first reported the Brewers were working to sign Lindblom. MLBTR predicted he’d sign a two-year, $8M guarantee at the beginning of free agency. Brewers fans may know Lindblom best from his brief time with the division-rival...

The 2015 AL MVP would add significant production to the Brewers’ lineup
The 2019-2020 offseason has proven to be fast paced and lucrative for free agents. That has been especially the case for several Brewers who all enhanced their worth in a Milwaukee uniform. Unfortunately that also means that the teams has some glaring holes. If we just look at the positional player group, the loss of Yasmani Grandal and Mike Moustakas to free agency as well as the...

It’s been awhile since they’ve made a pick, but several open spots and the upcoming 26-man roster could mean this is the year.
Baseball’s annual Rule 5 Draft is scheduled to take place on Thursday morning during the Winter Meetings in San Diego, California. This is the third winter under the new Rule 5 Draft rules in the most recent CBA; remember, the Double-A phase of the minor league portion of the draft has been...

He was a big league journeyman who remade himself overseas.
Starting pitching depth is a glaring need for the Milwaukee Brewers this winter. David Stearns recognizes that, saying recently that his club will need to add “multiple arms” to their roster before the start of Spring Training. The club is apparently filling one of those vacancies with right-hander Josh Lindblom, who spent the last three seasons pitching in Korea:
Brewers are working to try...

Long time Angels right fielder might be a good fit in Milwaukee
With the exception of Omar Narvaez and Christian Yelich, the Milwaukee Brewers are devoid of left handed power in their lineup. With Miller Park being especially friendly to left handed bats, David Stearns seems to be looking to rectify that.
Interest in free agent OF Kole Calhoun is solidifying, with the #BlueJays, #Reds, #Brewers and #Marlins all showing interest, sources say. He’s...

The former All-Star closer is still recovering from Tommy John surgery, but won’t have to worry about going to an arbitration hearing
The Brewers are avoiding what was potentially one of their most tricky arbitration cases, foregoing a hearing with Corey Knebel and getting the former All-Star to agree to a one-year deal.
Adam McCalvy broke the news this afternoon, which the club confirmed a short while ago.
A source says the Brewers have reached a...

Yasmani Grandal earned second-team honors, too.
More than six millions votes were cast, and earlier today the inaugural “All-MLB” first and second teams were officially released. Two current members of the Milwaukee Brewers and one recently-departed stalwart were named among the honorees, and none of them are exactly surprising:
The 2019 All-MLB First & Second Teams!

The Brewers have avoided arbitration with right-hander reliever Corey Knebel, whom they’ve signed to a one-year contract, Milwaukee announced. Knebel had been projected to earn $5.125 million in 2020, his penultimate year of arbitration eligibility. The 2019 campaign was a lost season for Knebel, who underwent Tommy John surgery in late March. At last check, however, Knebel was recovering well from the procedure. The return of a healthy Knebel should be a boon for the Brewers. The...

The veteran left-hander may be on the trading block as New York closes in on a deal for Gerrit Cole
With Stephen Strasburg returning to the Washington Nationals on a record-breaking deal, the belief at this week’s Winter Meetings is that Gerrit Cole will soon find a home as well.
That’s largely believed to be with the New York Yankees, who were at least expected to make a formal offer to Cole this week. But in order to add Cole, the...

The Brewers will face the Cubs, Mets, and Cardinals
