Milwaukee Brewers
Like the Cincinnati Reds even the Milwaukee Brewers are being rebuilt and even if their situation is slightly better than the Reds are still far from being competitive for a post in the playoffs, the lineup is discreet, led by Ryan Braun it is certainly able also to score points against good starters most of all the games at Miller Park where the field helps the batsmen. The weaknesses are definitely one led by War rotation, which did very well last season with an ERA of 2.81, the rest of the rotation leaves a lot to be desired with Davies, Peralta, Garza (not what it once) and Nelson does not They look up and counting the bullpen is very young and could give reliability problems the ERA of Brewers is bound to be high.
