Congratulations to the World Champion Milwaukee Brewers. I just started looking at salaries and options and arbitration. Looks like some sizable salaries won’t be back. May and Senz in particular. Brewers are set up well for the future. I wouldn’t mind going after an established 2-3 rotation starting pitcher. What say you?

They literally have that guy already on the roster in Quinn Priester, who is expected to be full-go for Spring Training. Don't forget how great that guy was in 2025. He wasn't a fluke, either. Guy has legit TOR-type stuff.

I understand what you are saying however he may not come back the same. Big question marks after Miz, Henderson, Gasser. Lots of options but lots of questions.

I keep running the numbers in my head and I cannot express how well set up it seems the Brewers are set up with the roster moving forward financially.  I would love to see someone with more talent and time to do a breakdown of the 2027 expected numbers to see what I am missing.  It seems to me after letting some of the obvious players walk (May, Sanchez, etc) the Brewers are in a great spot with some flexibility to pursue talent, or as I would prefer, lock up some more in house talent.

First candidate for rotation?  How about Ashby?  Injuries took him down.  He’s clearly back with a starters mix of pitches.  He’s a huge weapon in the pen.  But could be TOR.

1.  Miz

2.  Ashby

3.  Henderson

4.  Gasser

5.  Priester

6.  Harrison

Pen:

Megill

Uribe

Hall (2 inning guy)

Patrick (2 inning guy)

Drohan (2 inning guy)

Romero!  (Would love to have him back)

Final pen spot is rotation of guys with options like Gordon, Anderson, Crow, Sproat

Assuming he didn’t price himself out of our range with his late season run, I think a Freddy Peralta reunion would make total sense. 

Much different relying on him as our 3 or 4 than our ace.

But this is only assuming his market is cooler than expected and he’s available for like 3/60. If it’s more years than that I would look elsewhere.

There is a kid down in Nashville - Cameron Wagoner - and I really think he has a good chance to break camp with the big league club next spring or whenever we start play again. Big tall righty, he might even make Megill available for trade and just bump into Uribe's spot. Was really good in Biloxi and then nearly unhittable in Nashville when he got moved up.
