Corbin Burnes Explains Lack Of Extension Talks With Brewers
1 year agoMilwaukee Brewers ace Corbin Burnes explained why he and the club have not had any contract extension talks as he approaches his final season of club control. Speaking to Foul Territory TV, Burnes essentially explained that his ace-level results over the last few seasons priced him out of the small-market Brewers' range and both he and the club separately figured there was little point in discussing a short-term deal or a low-dollar figure offer just one year before free agency. As a result, Burnes' name will swirl in trade rumors this winter after he worked to a 3.39 ERA in 32 starts in 2023 while posting sub-3.00 ERA figures from 2020-2022. The Chicago Cubs are one club that has been rumored to have trade interest in the 29-year-old.
