MLB Free Agency has officially begun, but it remains to be seen just how active our local Milwaukee Brewers will be this winter. The club does have myriad holes to fill, but after payroll fell by about 25% last offseason, spending is expected to be down once again after the shortened COVID-19 pandemic campaign without fans in the stands. David Stearns and company will have to get creative in order to put another competitive team on the field again during the upcoming season.
We have already surveyed the free agent market to get an idea of who the strongest available players are and at what positions, including on the infield, in the outfield, the bullpen arms, and the starting pitchers on the open market.
