Thought we should have a thread for everything Brewers during their offseason.

Sure sounds as if Hoskins is picking up his option to be with the Brewers in 2025, from this no paywall JSO article. Also did not know he was coming off an ACL in 23. Sometimes it takes a player a full year after ACL recovery to really get back into the "swing" of things.
Did not realize Hoskins also has a $4 million mutual buyout option for 2026. So technically it will cost the Brewers $22 million.
Contract status for all the Brewers going into 2025. This is from a JSO article that should not be on a paywall:
Brewers to be on MLB in 2025, no more Bally sports, from a no paywall JSO article:
I'll believe it when I see it but I'm not holding my breath that MLB will let us watch many Brewer games.
JSO piece on prospects in the minors who may make the Brewers in 2025 or 6, no paywall I think:
Chourio might have us all seeing stars, but Jesus Made might be the next Chourio

I'm betting that even on MLB Network, local market control will dictate what teams games get aired, in my area. That means lots of Twins games, not so much for Brewers games, for Brewers' fans, in my area.
Anyone else feel the World Series will be between the Yankees and the Dodgers? If so, I won't be watching.
My cousins son in law works for the Guardians in the front office. I'll be cheering for them since it won't be the Brewers.
Crew has 3 finalists for a gold glove award this year. Turang at 2nd base has the best shot, but Perkins and Frelick are also in the running as outfielders:

Bally Sports is becoming Fan Duel Sports on October 21st.

Pete Rose was ahead of his time. He could have been the spokesperson for this network.
WTF does all that mean? Are they still losing the Brewers? Will the Bucks remain on this new service? What do I have to do with my current Bally stream subscription. Would be nice if Bally let us know.... 
Sheesh.

I don't know. We never got Bally Sports Wisconsin, over here, where I live because Xfinity did not carry Bally Sports WI, in their line up. I've read that the baseball deal with MLB Network has been done, so, the Brewers will be on MLB Network, this upcoming season. I don't know how many Brewers' games will be aired, as several other teams are also having their games aired on the MLB Network. I'm pretty sure that Brewers fans will get skewered, somehow, no matter where they live, in Wisconsin.
Brewers pitching coach, Chris Hale, signs a new contract to stay with the Crew:
https://www.jsonline.com/story...-season/75919137007/
"Hook, who has been with the Brewers organization in a coaching role since 2008 and served as the big-league pitching coach since 2019, has been at the center of the club's pitching excellence in recent years.
Since 2019, Milwaukee ranks fifth in Major League Baseball and second in the National League behind only the Los Angeles Dodgers in earned run average. The Brewers are second in that time in all of baseball in strikeouts, which is indicative of an effort on the pitching side that has been at the forefront of five playoff appearances in the last six years."
