Here are the free agents the Brewers should avoid during this offseason

The Milwaukee Brewers will have a couple key positions to fill in free agency for the 2025 MLB season, the main one being the potential departure of Willy Adames. However, there are a couple areas where the Brewers could look to improve, replace and deal from that may lead to other free agents being looked at.

Lets look at some free agents the Milwaukee Brewers should avoid.

Free Agents the Milwaukee Brewers Should Avoid: Honorable Mention - OF Jesse Winker

This one is fairly obvious, but keep Jesse Winker as far away from Milwaukee as possible. The Brewers took a chance on him in 2023 after coming off an injury riddled 2022 season. Winker batted .199 with the Brewers and then turned around and had the audacity to whine about how Brewers fans reacted to him after jawing with fan favorite Willy Adames.

Jesse Winker managed to find a way onto the Milwaukee Brewers 2023 playoff roster when the Brewers got swept by the Arizona Diamondbacks. In that two game series, Winker batted twice and was retired both times. Fast forwarding a bit, Winker ended up landing with the Mets and their $317 million payroll team halfway through the season and earned infamy with Milwaukee fans by talking a ton of trash to the Brewers he played with just a season before.

This interaction with Winker was obviously widely covered when it first happened and the question remains, "what the heck is Jesse Winker's deal?" It probably wouldn't shock anyone if the next time Winker bats in Milwaukee that a ball finds Winker's body somewhere, but we'll have to wait until 2025 for that.

Whatever the case may be, there won't need to be much conversation on why the Milwaukee Brewers should avoid Winker like the plague in the future.
