2020 Most Valuable Brewers Poll #7

Sadly, the 2020 Championship Season has concluded for our Milwaukee Brewers, and the annual six month depression that is the baseball offseason has begun. It was a year unlike any other with the shortened schedule and COVID-19 protocols, and though our big league Cream City Nine finished under .500 and struggled on offense all year long, they were able to sneak into the expanded postseason as the final seed. That made three playoff berths in a row dating back to 2018, a first for the franchise. A quick defeat at the hands of the Dodgers will likely lead into another busy offseason for David Stearns and his front office.

Now it’s time to make your voice heard and cast your votes for the Most Valuable Brewers of 2020! We will be voting for the top 10 contributors with both position players and pitchers eligible for the ballot. The composite WAR data presented is based on an average of each individual’s WAR according to Fangraphs, Baseball-Reference, and Baseball Prospectus. For players that were traded, only their production with the Brewers will be counted.

Yesterday, Brent Suter was selected as the #5 MVB. He has been removed from the list, and balloting will run through tomorrow before this poll closes and we begin voting for the #8 MVBrewer.
