Milwaukee Brewers free agent targets: Corey Dickerson
Photo by Mitchell Leff/ Underrated player who can really hit With the acquisition of Omar Narvaez, the Milwaukee Brewers found the catcher they would use to team with Manny Pina. That was one need addressed, but there are several more to go. In fact the Brewers must deal with third base as they are projected to have the worst production in baseball from that position, starting pitching, probably the bullpen, and some combination of first base and corner outfield. With discussions about Ryan Braun having greater defensive versatility, it might be easier to think about Braun at first base...

Trade Analysis: Brewers prevent catcher from becoming black hole in lineup, but will need defensive creativity
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports Omar Narvaez should provide offensive stability, with Manny Pina and a 26th man possibily providing the defense Yasmani Grandal is one of the best overall catchers in baseball and the Brewers were never going to totally replace his production. With that in mind, David Stearns did what he could to at least get close, and focused on the half of Grandal’s game that may have needed to be replaced the most: the offensive production. David Stearns initial statement on Narvaez: “Omar has established himself as one of the best offensive catchers in the...

This offseason, David Stearns is taking his greatest risk yet
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Stearns has never been afraid to be unconventional. Now he’s taking that boldness to the next level.

In January 2018, he swung a blockbuster trade to acquire Christian Yelich from the Miami Marlins. While it came at the cost of top prospect Lewis Brinson, an outfield of Ryan Braun, Yelich, and Domingo Santana — who was coming off of...
