The 2024 Milwaukee Brewers look very different compared to the 2023 team. Corbin Burnes is gone, along with Brian Anderson, Mark Canha, Victor Caratini, Carlos Santana, Rowdy Tellez, Adrian Houser, and Tyrone Taylor, just to name a few.
Milwaukee added several young guys in Oliver Dunn, DL Hall, and Joey Ortiz, as well as several veterans in Jake Bauers, Eric Haase, Rhys Hoskins, Gary Sanchez, Jakob Junis, Taylor Clarke, and Joe Ross. Pat Murphy is the new manager, replacing Craig Counsell after he signed with the Cubs.
With so much youth in the fold between the new faces and prospects nearing major-league playing time, let’s take a look at five of Milwaukee’s biggest x-factors as the Brewers enter one of the most uncertain seasons in recent years.
