The Milwaukee Brewers have a lot of talent and should be able to compete for the top spot in the National League Central again.

As soon as the shock and disappointment wore off, Colin Rea took an analytical approach to the Milwaukee Brewers declining the 2025 option on his contract.

Tonight, Rea will join three-time Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association World Champion Bareback Rider Tim O'Connell at “Pose with the Pros,” an autograph session and photo opportunity to benefit the Bernard Playground & Recreation Project.
