The Milwaukee Brewers are facing a pivotal moment in their infield alignment following the departure of Willy Adames. With the team’s low payroll and a glaring hole at shortstop, the question arises: how should the Brewers approach this situation?

Joey Ortiz and Brice Turang are both capable shortstops who have been playing out of position, but can they truly fill the void left by Adames? Ortiz has shown impressive defensive skills at third base, while Turang just snagged a Platinum Glove at second. Could a middle-infield duo of Ortiz and Turang be the best defensive pairing in baseball?

Let’s not forget about Tyler Black, who is being groomed for third base. With his bat-first approach and versatility, could he be the wild card that changes the dynamic of the infield? Or will his defensive shortcomings hold him back from making a significant impact?

As we look ahead to the 2025 season, what are your bold predictions for the Brewers' infield? Will they find a way to maximize their young talent, or will they struggle to fill the gaps? Share your thoughts on how you see this playing out and what strategies the Brewers should consider to bolster their infield.
