2025 Preview: Milwaukee Brewers
Briefly

The Milwaukee Brewers have consistently performed well in the regular season, finishing above .500 in seven of the last eight seasons, but have struggled in the playoffs, losing six straight series, including back-to-back Wild Card eliminations in 2023 and 2024. Their recent history showcases a pattern of near misses, with key injuries and trades affecting their ability to win in October. As they approach the 2025 season, significant player losses challenge their prospects, even as they rely on a strong developmental strategy and returning talent like Christian Yelich, who is crucial for their success moving forward.
In the last eight seasons, the Brewers have finished above .500 seven times, but they've lost six straight playoff series, raising questions about their postseason viability.
Despite a strong regular season track record, the Brewers have struggled in October, with a notable loss to the Mets in last year's Wild Card round breaking their momentum.
Milwaukee's player development remains strong, but they faced significant roster losses with trades and free agency, making their path in 2025 uncertain.
Christian Yelich, returning for the 2025 season, needs to overcome injury issues; his absence in the Wild Card series highlighted his importance to the team's success.
