MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee's starting rotation could have a new look next season with right-handers Frankie Montas and Colin Rea heading into free agency. The Brewers announced that Montas had declined his part of a $20 million mutual option for 2025. The Brewers turned down the $5.5 million club option on Rea's contract. Montas receives a $2 million buyout and Rea gets a $1 million buyout. The New York Mets claimed right-hander Kevin Herget off waivers from the Brewers. The Chicago Cubs claimed former Brewers left-hander Rob Zastryzny off waivers.
