1. Jesus Aguilar, First Baseman, Miami Marlins
It would be amazing to see Jesus Aguilar return to a Brewers’ uniform considering how fun and successful his first run with the team was.
Aguilar played in Milwaukee from 2017 to 2019 when he was traded due to an extended slump at the plate. However, he’s bounced back in a big way and is enjoying another successful hitting season. In 89 games this year, he’s hitting .275 with a .336 on-base percentage to go along with 17 home runs and 68 RBIs.

Aguilar might not be a defensive savant at first base, but he’s a true middle-of-the-order hitter that would make Milwaukee instantaneously more dangerous at the plate. He’s also arbitration-eligible for one more year which makes him more than a half-season rental. Milwaukee should find a way to get this player back on their team so they can make a strong push for a World Series appearance.
