2. Offense

Milwaukee’s offense has been disappointing this season with just about everyone falling short of their expectations–outside of Willy Adames and Narvaez. Keston Hiura has been stuck in a slump for two seasons now. Christian Yelich hasn’t rediscovered his elite power and hitting that made him an MVP. Whether it’s been Lorenzo Cain or Jackie Bradley Jr., the Brewers aren’t getting consistent production from center field. The list goes on.

If Milwaukee acquires an offensive player, the position he plays could really come from anywhere. They could use another outfielder if that player brings offense to the table. If he plays on the infield, Milwaukee would move guys around to make it work. It’s hard to narrow down one specific position (outside of maybe first base) so the Brewers can keep their eyes peeled as we get closer to the trade deadline.
