Matt Arnold, President of Baseball Operations for the Brewers, won Executive of the Year:

Milwaukee went 93-69 and won the NL Central by 10 games after losing manager Craig Counsell to the division-rival Chicago Cubs in the offseason. The Brewers lost a three-game wild-card series to the New York Mets.

Arnold’s major moves included promoting bench coach Pat Murphy to take over for Counsell as manager and signing young outfielder Jackson Chourio to an eight-year, $82 million contract before he’d played a game in the majors. Arnold also traded 2021 NL Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes for left-hander DL Hall and third baseman Joey Ortiz.

It really looked like a rebuilding season for Milwaukee, but Jack Jackson Chourio turneed out to be very good, and Pat Murphy made the most of his assets. I suspect Murphy will join him with a manager of the year award, although there are other very good choices there, including Dave Roberts and Carlos Mendoza.
