The Yankees are focused on re-signing Juan Soto this offseason, but if they can&#8217;t get him, they could focus on any number of other stars including Christian Walker, Roki Sasaki or Pete Alonso.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_i3rbi75r1\">For the\u00a0Brewers, they face the harsh reality of losing All-Star shortstop Willy Adames in free agency. They also could be in a position to have to trade All-Star closer Devin Williams before the season begins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_vqwh49o4z\">As for the likely pitching matchup in that opener? Gerrit Cole will get the ball for New York, provided he&#8217;s healthy. As for the Brewers? It&#8217;s tough to say. Freddy Peralta was the team&#8217;s best pitcher in 2024, but Brandon Woodruff could be a dark-horse candidate. The longtime ace missed the whole season but should be back healthy in 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After winning the National League Central in 2024, the Milwaukee Brewers will get some national love on Opening Day in 2025.
