Former Mets GM Billy Eppler joining Brewers as special adviser, AP source says

Billy Eppler has joined the Milwaukee Brewers as a special adviser for scouting and baseball operations, according to Andy Martino of SNY.
Eppler resigned from the Mets in October 2023 after MLB's investigation found he fabricated injuries to gain roster spots.
Under his management, the Mets won 101 games in 2022, but fell to a 75-87 record in 2023, resulting in major organizational changes.
The Brewers are pursuing a third straight NL Central title with Matt Arnold as president of baseball operations since October 2022.
