MLB Trade Rumors: Corbin Burnes Expected to Stay with Brewers; SP Won Cy Young in '21
Corbin Burnes is likely remaining with the Milwaukee Brewers.
According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Brewers are "now expected to retain" Burnes rather than dealing him on the trade market.
It's good news for Brewers fans. Burnes, 29, is a three-time All-Star and the 2021 Cy Young award winner. He was excellent in 2023, finishing 10-8 with a 3.39 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 200 strikeouts across 193.2 innings and 32 starts.
