Brewers Senior Vice President and General Manager Matt Arnold held a season-ending press conference on Tuesday morning. While such press conferences often feature some non-answers and executive speak, Arnold did address the team’s stance on the futures of manager Craig Counsell and pitcher Corbin Burnes.
Arnold reiterated the organization’s preference for Counsell to remain as manager after his contract expires at the end of October. That said, he will not rush Counsell into a decision.
“We’re not going to put any timetable on Craig,” Arnold said. “He’s our top choice here for sure.”
With Counsell’s future uncertain, Arnold said the Brewers have not made any decisions regarding the rest of the coaching staff.
