Now that the Brewers have traded their closer from 2024 to the Yankees, does that open the door to signing free agent and ECU Alum Jeff Hoffman?

SI.com believes so.

The Brewers traded All-Star closer Devin Williams to the Yankees for left-hander Nestor Cortes and infield prospect Caleb Durbin. SI reports that the Brewers are likely the team to beat in the NL Central, so getting a good closer can only make the team better.
