Brewers Looking Like a .500 Team

At least that’s how this site is seeing them. And it’s hard not to disagree with the projection of 81 wins. Sure, they’ve upgraded the pitching to some extent. Well, at least the rotation should be more consistent. They lost some offense in the process, meaning that there will be even more pressure on Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun to produce at their past levels. So if one of them goes down for more than a few games and if one of those “innings eaters” they are counting on doesn’t eat innings for whatever reason, I could see the Crew falling below sea level. Moreover, I expect the Cubs to be better than this projection shows. So I foresee it being very difficult for MKE to return to the post-season unless everything goes very, very well for them all year long.
