Adames' Contract Status: Under club control through 2024
Even though they just made the playoffs for the fifth time in six seasons, could the Brewers be about to tear it all down?
It's only becoming less unthinkable. Losing manager Craig Counsell to the rival Cubs was a big blow, and this past Friday saw the Brewers make a free agent out of Brandon Woodruff by non-tendering him.
Per a Nov. 9 report from Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic that Milwaukee is open to moving "virtually any player," trades could be next. If the idea would be to cut costs and get talent in return, then Corbin Burnes and Willy Adames are the most likely goners.
They're projected to earn $15.1 and $12.4 million, respectively, in their final seasons under club control in 2024. These are hardly unreasonable sums, as Burnes is a Cy Young Award-winning ace and Adames is a slick defender whose bat is inconsistent, yet powerful.
The notion that the Brewers should keep both and aim for another playoff berth has, but the reality seems to be that 2024 will be a retooling year for the franchise. Since Burnes and Adames have value now, there's no sense waiting until next summer to trade them if that's the case.
