4 under-the-radar contract extension candidates Brewers should consider paying this offseason

Owen Jonas of Reviewing the Brew highlights four under-the-radar contract extension candidates the Milwaukee Brewers should consider signing following their 2026 World Series championship. With high-profile stars like Brice Turang and William Contreras likely demanding expensive deals, Jonas argues that Milwaukee could maximize its added revenue by pursuing more cost-effective, team-friendly multi-year agreements with other emerging contributors.

The proposed candidates include rookie starter Logan Henderson, who posted a 2.47 ERA in 2026, and bounce-back left-hander Kyle Harrison. Jonas also suggests extending center fielder Garrett Mitchell to hedge against injury risk across his remaining arbitration seasons, along with 27-year-old postseason standout Robert Gasser via a multi-year deal featuring club options.
