The Milwaukee Brewers have quietly built one of the most consistently successful organizations in Major League Baseball, officially clinching a spot in the playoffs for their seventh time in the last eight seasons yesterday. Much of that success can be traced back to the stability and cohesion of their front office.
Over the years, retaining familiar faces and promoting from within has been the Brewers’ strategy when it comes to keeping key personnel in place. This is true across scouting, player development, analytics, coaching, and leadership. By doing so, the organization has maintained a strong internal alignment that allows all departments to operate cohesively and efficiently, which is why they haven’t missed a beat following David Stearns’ departure to New York.
