Brewers Prediction

I think that the Brewers will make another push for the playoffs this year even though they lost their two best pitchers, Ben Sheets and C.C Sabathia. They have gained some pitching though to help them out. They got Trevor Hoffman, a future hall of famer, for their closing pitcher, and Brandon Looper to help them out in their starting rotation.

Some pitchers will have to step up more in order for them to do well. Manny Parra has to pitch like he did in the middle of the season last year when he was dominating most hitters. Also Dave Bush needs to have a break out year. Last year was a big step up for him from the previous year.

Not only does the pitching need to do well, but their batting needs to be more consistent this year. Last year they went through long slumps where they could not hit the broad side of the barn, and then they had a week where they scored six or more runs per game. Everybody has to do their job this year, play up to their potential, and the Brewers could be seeing themselves back into the postseason for the second straight year.
