In the next of our series previewing the MLB trade deadline, who are the top position players that the Milwaukee Brewers can target this July?

What happened to the Milwaukee Brewers offense?

After a blazing hot start to the season, the Brewers bats have struggled to score runs on a consistent basis over the past three to four weeks. Their inconsistencies have seen them drop from being a top ten offense in Major League Baseball at the beginning of June, to a middle of the pack team entering the all-star break. The Brewers rank just 16th in runs scored entering this weekend’s series against the San Francisco Giants.

Though their answers to getting the offense going are likely to come from within, another way the Milwaukee Brewers could look to improve is to pivot to the trade market.

In the next of our series previewing the MLB Trade Deadline, we’ll take a look at what top-tier position players are likely to be on the market this July. For an explainer on these rankings were made, you can find a detailed breakdown here.
