That list includes Aaron Ashby, Jared Koenig, Angel Zerpa, Rob Zastryzny, and DL Hall,&#8221; Peterson wrote. &#8220;Koenig, who is in pre-arbitration in 2026 and will enter his first year of arbitration in 2027, has been a fireman for Milwaukee across the last two seasons. He\u2019s been one of their most valuable relief options, pitching to a 2.47 ERA in 62 innings in 2024 and a 2.86 ERA in 66 innings in 2025.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"70\">&#8220;Still, the bullen is a strength of this roster, and there is an opportunity to trade from a surplus here and improve the bench in a big way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"73\">The Brewers&#8217; bullpen is one of their biggest strengths. But they have a plethora of left-handed pitching options they could trade from. Cutting ties with Koenig would help the team if they can net a solid return.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"76\">Landing Schneider would be a solid addition for the Brewers. He&#8217;s a very good defensive outfielder with the offensive profile that plays well with the Brewers. They could look to help develop him as a hitter, which would bolster their lineup quite a bit. Adding him to their outfield would be a big upgrade as they look to win the National League Central again next season.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"79\">More MLB: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/mlb\/brewers\/onsi\/news-feed\/brewers-hit-lottery-signed-milwaukee-s-next-superstar-shortstop-zach3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Brewers Hit Lottery, Signed Milwaukee&#8217;s Next Superstar Shortstop<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Milwaukee Brewers have been one of the best teams in the league for the last few years,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":414774,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[363,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-414773","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mlb","8":"tag-mlb","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/414773","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=414773"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/414773\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/414774"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=414773"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=414773"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=414773"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
