- The Brewers enter the season with their lowest win total (76.5) since 2017.
- Milwaukee has cleared its win total in six of the last seven full seasons.
The Milwaukee Brewers are poised to go through a transition period, beginning with the 2024 season.
After postseason berths in five of the past six seasons, the Brewers lost their manager when Craig Counsell left town to take the same job with the Chicago Cubs. Milwaukee then traded its ace for a pair of promising young players.
Unsurprisingly, MLB betting markets are lower on the Brewers compared to previous years. But will they surprise in a wide-open National League Central?
Brewers Futures Odds
Win Total: 76.5
NL Central: +750
NL Pennant: +5000
World Series: +10000
Milwaukeeโs preseason prices havenโt been this long since 2017, as its World Series odds have typically traded between +1700 and +3500 for the last six years.
In addition, the Brewersโ win total hasnโt been this low since they had an over/under of 70.5 entering the 2017 campaign. They have cleared their win total in six of the last seven full seasons, not counting the COVID-shortened campaign in 2020.
Milwaukeeโs recent win totals:
- 2023: 85.5 (92 wins)
- 2022: 90.5 (86 wins)
- 2021: 83.5 (95 wins)
- 2019: 86.5 (89 wins)
- 2018: 83.5 (96 wins)
- 2017: 70.5 (86 wins)
- 2016: 70.5 (73 wins)

The Brewers sent Burnes to the Orioles in exchange for Hall and Ortiz, a pair of promising young players who had a limited path to playing time in Baltimoreโs loaded farm system.
Hall will get his crack at making the initial starting rotation after being a reliever for the Orioles. He pitched in 29 MLB games over two years, tossing a 4.36 ERA and 42 strikeouts in 33 total innings. Ortiz could crack the starting lineup as an infielder, too.
Hoskins, 31, was an intriguing addition to help solidify first base and provide a veteran presence in the middle of the lineup. His signing came before the trade, indicating the Brewers might still believe in their chances of winning this year.
Brewers 2024 Betting Prediction
Prediction: Brewers over 76.5 wins (-110)
The NL Central is as competitive as it has been in recent years while the Brewers are rebuilding. But this win projection counts them out too much.
FanGraphs projects 80 wins for Milwaukee, while PECOTA has a projection of 79.3. Either way, this number is a touch low for a team that has cleared its win total in six of its last seven full seasons.
The Brewers havenโt had a losing season since 2016, a streak that could end this summer. But donโt be surprised if they hover around .500 for most of the year.
