The Milwaukee Brewers were recently listed as one of the clubs with the least improvement this winter, despite their quiet off-season. The Pittsburgh Pirates, Cincinnati Reds, and St. Louis Cardinals, on the other hand, have all made efforts to strengthen their teams through outside acquisitions. The Chicago Cubs, their previous division rivals, remained quiet about their major league additions until they recently declared that LHP Shōta Imanaga would be joining them.

With 92 victories a year ago, the Milwaukee Brewers claimed the National League Central division. After the Cubs won the division in the truncated 2020 season, St. Louis won the division in 2022 with 93 victories, followed by the Brewers in 2021 with 95. Since the division’s creation in 1994, the Pirates have never finished first, while Cincinnati hasn’t won the Central Division since 2012.

Opening Day is still two and a half months away, so it will be interesting to see whether any of these clubs can make enough progress in the off-season to alter their current odds. For the most part of the 2023 season, the National League Central competition remained close, therefore 2024 should see another competitive season including all of these teams.

The question of how he would go about switching from a Milwaukee organisation he knew so well to a new squad in Chicago was one of many insightful aspects of the conversation. After pausing for a moment, he stated that he was undecided about the current crew and wanted to see the players for himself when he arrived to Mesa instead of jumping in right away. It was a well-considered response, representative of the sympathetic style that Carter Hawkins and Jed Hoyer had previously alluded to when discussing his capacity to relate to younger players.

Even though Counsell’s time in Chicago is still early, I have a feeling that we will all find it entertaining to watch him lead the Cubs to success.
