After a season where the Brewers struggled horribly with pitching they made some bold off season moves. They traded their best prospect Brett Lawrie, their young talented shortstop in order to receive Zack Greinke, and Shaun Marcum. Greinke is a Cy Young Award winner and Shaun Marcum is a coveted ace pitcher in the american league east. Last year it was proven that pitching and defense wins championships. The San Francisco Giants won the World Series last year with one of the worst hitting teams in the league. They relied on pitching from their star pitchers and that propelled them to a World Series. Hopefully the Brewers now have the pitching in place to propel them to that same level. The Brewers are a solid hitting team that has the ability to hit homeruns at anytime. People are very excited around the state for this season to begin. I predict the Brewers to make a serious run if injuries dont become an issue and the bullpen performs at a respectful level.
