One of the best ways for a rebuilding club to work towards a better future is to try find and capitalize on “buy-low” candidates. Whether this is through minor trades, free agents, farmhands, or the waiver wire, there are several avenues that a club can utilize to add new talent to the fold. When wins and losses are of no consequence, it is the perfect opportunity to audition players and see who can become a useful piece at the big league level.
Led by GM Doug Melvin, the rebuilding Milwaukee Brewers are already elbow deep in this process.
