I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Brewers 78-84. No playoffs. Lame duck CC announces he will not be back in 2024. Burnes is traded at the deadline. Adames is traded during the off-season. Woodruff is signed to a 3 year extension.

Coach Drew: "Milwaukee has always been a team that I have been intrigued by. When we played them, they were a tough team for us to play. Although we did beat them all four times"

Re: 2023 Brewers/League Prediction Thread
I'm bullish on the Crew and down on the rest of the NL Central. I also think they'll be squarely in the playoff picture and decide to make another run at a title, not trading Burnes or Adames until the off-season or 2024 trade deadline.
95-67
Beat Mets in NLCS
Lose WS to Yankees
Very good pitching
Very good defense
Good offense
Good rookies
It's a pretty strong roster IMO, but they're flying under the radar because expectations have changed.

Re: 2023 Brewers/League Prediction Thread
I think season is going to be an bottom 10 total clean out at deadline or 88+ wins, no in between. I will be optimistic and believe the staff will be top tier in MLB and this year we'll have more offense.
Brewers 88-74. Think its enough to win division as think Cards fall a bit and no one else steps up in division. Brewers will be bounced in NLCS by Braves.
Braves over Mariners in World Series.
Playoffs
NL: Braves, Padres, Brewers, Dodgers, Phillies, Mets
AL: Astros, Yankees, White Sox, Mariners, Blue Jays, Rays
Surprise NL Team: Diamondbacks
Surprise AL Team: Angels will be in the playoff mix.
Brewers surprise for the good will be Jesse Winkler. Disappointment will be Contreras is just mediocre and doesn't add much.

Re: 2023 Brewers/League Prediction Thread
I want to zig when most meatball fans zag - this team is probably undervalued due to a lot of fluky underperformance stuff.
But the other elephant in the room is if they struggle early, they could sell it all off.
I'm going to say 88 wins and a loss in the first series round, whatever that is. Maybe I'll add more picks/detail later.

Re: 2023 Brewers/League Prediction Thread
I'll go 90 wins and a deep playoff run where they rip our heart out in game 7 of the NLCS, true Wisconsin sports team style.
Then they blow it up next winter.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

Feels like they’re a .500 team that if things go right can be a 90 win team.
But it’s the Brewers so 81-81 it is.

Mid to high 80s wins. Good enough to be buyers at the deadline. All or nothing offense sputters when it matters
only a fan, only an opinion

They'll win some cool ones, lose some heartbreakers, and ultimately disappoint. And that's okay I guess.
