With most of the top-end starters on the free agent market already gone — including Clayton Kershaw, Jacob deGrom, and Justin Verlander — a majority of the available pitchers remaining are ideal candidates to join Milwaukee and finish out the rotation that is already led by Corbin Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, and Freddy Peralta.
While Milwaukee already has Adrian Houser, Aaron Ashby, and Eric Lauer on the roster as options to finish out the team’s rotation, it’s possible that the Brewers’ front office will look for another pitcher on the open market to help the team return to the playoffs in 2023.
