The Brewers have officially announced they will not be picking up the options of any of the players that had them for next season.
Declining their half of the $15 million mutual option with Ryan Braun was already announced earlier in the day, and their turning down the options for Jedd Gyorko and Ben Gamel was previously reported by other outlets.
The team confirmed those decisions, along with the fact they were turning down Eric Sogard’s team option, in a tweet this afternoon.
As Brad noted this afternoon, Gyorko is the surprise, considering he was one of the few productive bats in the Brewers’ lineup in 2020.
