Milwaukee Brewers Season Rundown: World Series, Conference, Division odds to win
When a team has success, the hope is that it will continue unabated, but that seldom happens in professional sports. The Milwaukee Brewers ended last season by winning the division, but they also crashed out of the playoffs early, all of which we will get into in a moment. They have been solid over the past 7 years under the coaching of Craig Counsell, but he bolted to the Chicago Cubs in the offseason, with Pat Murphy stepping in to take over the managing duties in Milwaukee. While Murphy has been with the team in an assistant capacity for years, he has a tough job on his hands to replicate the success that Counsell delivered. With all of that in mind, let’s take a look at what we can expect from the Brewers in the 2024 season.
Brewers in the NL Central
The Central is a division that is pretty far from being the strongest, with none of the 5 teams really making any offseason moves that might vault them to the top. As we already mentioned, the Brewers have changed managers, while also losing a pair of starting pitchers in the offseason. Yes, they made replacements, but overall, it does appear that the moves they made have made them worse as opposed to better.

Brewers in the National League
When you look at teams like the LA Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves, you get an idea of the task at hand for the Brewers in trying to win the NL pennant. Even as a division winner in 2023, the Brewers still had to go the Wild Card route, getting swept by the Arizona Diamondbacks, who eventually made it all the way to the World Series.

Brewers and the World Series
Okay, so let’s imagine for a moment that the Brewers are able to win the Central Division and make it to the playoffs. At some point, they are going to probably run into the Dodgers or Braves. Do you really believe that this team is good enough to beat either of those two in a 5 or 7-game series? That is something that is hard to fathom and the bookies seem to agree, putting the Brewers in at +8000.

2023 Milwaukee Brewers Betting Prediction
Previous Betting News
Heading into the 2023 MLB Season, most believe Milwaukee ends up in second place in the NL Central behind the rival St. Louis Cardinals. But the odds difference between the Brew Crew and the Cards to win the NL Central isn’t significant. Will Milwaukee win their division? What about the NL Pennant, and how about the World Series?
Check out MyBookie’s Brewers betting odds and predictions for 2023 MLB Seasons.
Milwaukee Brewers: 2023 Season Prediction
Team Names: Milwaukee Brewers
2022 Season: 86-76 – Home: 40-41 / Away: 40-41
Conference: National League
Division: Central Division
2023 MLB Regular Season: Mar. 30 – Oct. 1
Milwaukee Brewers to Win the National League Central +158
St. Louis is the -121 favorite to win the NL Central Division. Most believe the Cardinals hold off the Milwaukee Brewers, the Cubs, the Pirates and the Reds.
For sure, St. Louis will finish ahead of the Pirates, Cubs, and Reds. The Reds and Pirates are bad teams.
The Cardinals will finish in the top two, but they face a Milwaukee team that, at least on paper, is better than they are. It’s difficult to understand why the Cardinals offer lower odds than Milwaukee to win the NL Central.
Jack Flaherty, St. Louis’ ace, had a tough 2022. Corbin Burnes is at the top of the Brewers’ rotation. The man is a former Cy Young winner. So, yes, the Milwaukee Brewers win the NL Central.
Will the Brewers Win the NL Central: Yes
Milwaukee Brewers to Win the National League Pennant +1525
There are a lot of good teams in the National League. The San Diego Padres, Los Angeles Dodgers, Atlanta Braves, New York Mets, and last season’s NL Pennant champs, the Philadelphia Phillies, all have enough talent to win the National League Championship Series.
But before deciding not to back Milwaukee, realize that the top five choices offer odds below +1000. So if you don’t really love any of the five choices ahead of Milwaukee, and you don’t like St. Louis at +1025 to win the pennant, Milwaukee is a decent play at +1525.
Philly was an underdog to win the NL Pennant last year. Why couldn’t underdog Milwaukee do it this year? We’re not saying it will happen, but we are saying the Brewers offer fair odds for it to happen.
Will the Brewers Win the NL Pennant: No but they offer fair odds to do so
Milwaukee Brewers to Win the 2023 World Series +2800
Let’s say Milwaukee wins the NLCS. If that were to happen, just like Philadelphia last season, the Brewers would be an underdog, a huge underdog if the team they play are the Houston Astros, to win the World Series.
True, but Milwaukee would be 1 of 2 teams that could win the World Series. Not only that, but if Milwaukee were to make it to the Fall Classic, the Brewers match up well against the New York Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays, and any team from the AL Central.
Will Milwaukee win the World Series? No, they won’t. Or at least they shouldn’t. However, if you want to take a stab go for it because 28-to-1 are odds fair.
Will the Brewers Win the World Series: No but they offer fair odds to do so
