The NL dark horse. The Brewers have better than decent pitching and are allowing their everyday players to develop. Playoffs are possible this season, especially if the Braves, Mats, and Astros slip and fade.

Very young promising club. They have a lot of talent. The only bad thing about it is that they share a division with the Cardinals and Astros.

brew crew!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About a 2.5, are putting together a good crop of young talents, but aren't ready yet. Should win anywhere from, at a guess, 78-88 games, and could challenge for a while but will have to wait another year before they can be said to be serious contenders for the division title.

The Brewers have a fairly young team with some decent talent on it. However they are also in the same division as the Cardinals, and will have to significantly improve their 2005 record to challenge them. I think the Brewers are a team on the rise, but don't have enough firepower to get them into the postseason.
