Today the Brewers new general manager David Stearns and manager Craig Counsell met with the press to day for a sort of "end of season" wrap-up. Here are some notes on things I found interesting.
Asked if Stearns was close to hiring people for the front office he stated he was still in the process of meeting with everyone currently involved in the Brewers front office. Being just 4 days after the season ended he didn't want to put a timetable on any moves such as hiring or firing nor did he want to rush the process.
When asked about possible off season trades Stearns was non-committal but he did say that he would be open to exploring everything.
