The Milwaukee Brewers are having some good moments, but they still need to make some moves, especially with Willy Adames out. The answer may be Jose Iglesias.
From 2025, a full decade will have passed first and only All-Star appearance (via Detroit Tigers) by Cuban, but age shouldn’t be a hindrance to Brewers scouts as the MLB analyst thinks he’ll be a great fit for them.
His own song OMG made him a fan favorite for his last team, the New York Mets, but don’t be fooled. He is more than just an artist. Fans loved him because he had a 22-game batting streak 0.395 (34 out of 86) in the last three weeks of September.
SB Nation’s Paul Dietrich thinks Iglesias will he’s a great fit for the Brewers due to his performances last season.
“Jose Iglesias, after a year out of the majors, had an extremely effective season last year at age 34, but I would have huge doubts about his offensive numbers (he had a sky-high BABIP); if the Brewers (and his agent) don’t expect him to hit like he did last year, he could be an option,” Dietrich wrote.
Why are the Milwaukee Brewers taking a shot at Jose Iglesias?
Money is the main issue for the Brewers in this 2025 free agency. Luckily for them, a 34-year-old stop doesn’t cost that much.
Other stops associated with the club are pricey, but Sportrac reports that Iglesias is worth just $1.7 million.
Iglesias remains a solid hitter and could be a great addition to the team’s newborn lineup.
