Brewers Promote Matt Klentak, Three Others

By Darragh McDonald | November 6, 2023 at 12:17pm CDT

The Brewers have promoted Will Hudgins, Matt Kleine and Karl Mueller to assistant general manager, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Meanwhile, Matt Klentak receives the title of executive advisor to the general manager.

Klentak served as the general manager of the Phillies from 2016 to 2020. The club was rebuilding for much of that period but it wasn’t proceeding as hoped and he stepped down after the shortened 2020 campaign. He stayed with the Phillies for a while in a lesser role but joined the Brewers prior to 2022 as special assistant to president of baseball operations David Stearns and general manager Matt Arnold.

The Brewers’ front office has had some transition in recent years. Stearns moved into an advisory role after 2022, with Arnold taking over as the primary baseball decision maker. Stearns then departed the organization entirely a couple of months ago to become the president of baseball operations for the Mets. That seems to have created some room for Arnold to promote from within the organization, tapping Klentak for a new title.

Per the Brewers’ staff directory on MLB.com, Hudgins previously held the title of vice president, baseball systems and high performance. Kleine was vice president, baseball operations. Mueller was senior vice president, player personnel.

    Now let’s see what happens with Corbin Burnes. I think they keep him at least until trade deadline.

    Well at least the front office is lining up to collect pay raises. My god.! How many assistants to the assistant to the special advisor of special programs and player personnel and relations do they need? Attanasio not too concerned when expanding that portion of the payroll.
    The Vice President of Baseball Systems and High End Performance.? What the hell is that? The guy with ” High End Performance” in your job title as it relates to the Brewers should have been fired not promoted.

      Look at the Brewers front office and scouting personnel. It resembles Minocqua, not Milwaukee. Then you know why this team has only made one WS appearance in over 50 years.
