Brewers have a shot at winning the World Series? Hear us out

The Brewers winning the 2025 World Series? 

Kerry Miller of B/R recently dropped some bold second-half predictions for the 2025 MLB season, and one take stood out above the rest: The Milwaukee Brewers Win Their 1st World Series.

And honestly? I’m all in on that.

Milwaukee rolled into the All-Star break all gas-no brakes since Jacob Misiorowski’s debut. That’s not a fluke. That’s a movement.

This is no longer just a team with a couple stars trying to drag a franchise along. The Brewers have genuine building blocks in Jackson Chourio and Jacob Misiorowski — two cornerstones who represent the start of the shift from the Christian Yelich era to something entirely fresh and exciting.

Chourio’s blend of power and speed (16 HR, 16 SB) has him tracking toward the rare 25/25 club, and he’s doing it at just 20 years old. Yelich himself is still producing — 19 HR and 14 SB before the break — but he’s no longer the main event. He’s the veteran presence that makes this young core even more dangerous.

And that core? It’s deep. Brice Turang, Sal Frelick and Garrett Mitchell have each found their lanes. They’re not flashy, but they play winning baseball — elite base running, glove-first defense, and the kind of hustle that doesn’t show up in highlight reels but wins games in October.

The next wave is already loading, too, with Jesus Made, Tyler Black, Jeferson Quero, and Cooper Pratt developing fast in the minors.

On the mound, Freddy Peralta is quietly having a career year (11-4, 2.66 ERA), Misiorowski is electric every time out, and Brandon Woodruff  has looked like his old self in two post-injury starts (10.1 IP, 0 BB, 18 K). If Nestor Cortes returns healthy, Milwaukee could have one of the deepest rotations in the National League.

And yet, the Brewers are still listed at +2500 to win the World Series — behind nine other teams.

That’s value. That’s disrespect. And that’s fuel.

Sure, a Brewers-Tigers World Series wouldn’t be a dream for MLB’s ad team after the star-studded Dodgers-Yankees showdown a year ago. But baseball’s never been about big markets when it matters most —  especially with the recent remarks from Rob Manfred — it’s about getting hot, staying connected, and doing the little things better than anyone else.

The Brewers check every one of those boxes.

Even more telling, Milwaukee started to make moves that align with this identity shift. Willy Adames, Corbin Burnes, and Devin Williams are all gone. Woodruff may be next. And if they do move him, expect them to go get a young arm — maybe recall Robert Gasser — to keep this fresh air churning.

The Brewers aren’t just trying to contend.

They are trying to win — right now and in the future. And this just might be the team and the star that finally brings a World Series title to Milwaukee.
