The 2024 Milwaukee Brewers, despite making the post-season five out of the last six seasons that includes three National League Central division titles, were not viewed as division favorites or even playoff contenders in the eyes of numerous media outlets. They once again turned around several parts of their roster, but this off-season they let their ace Corbin Burnes go via trade. This has led to them being reliant upon lots of young players to contribute, but they still have a good blend of veterans as well.
Almost one month into the regular season the Brewers currently find themselves on top of the National League Central division with a 13-6 record. They have been the best road team in baseball so far and their lone series loss came against the San Diego Padres. Their good start has caught the eyes of a few Fox Sports MLB analysts who have tagged them as the most impressive team in the division.

Road wins and playing scrappy baseball are two things that stand out early on in the Pat Murphy era.

First year Brewers manager Pat Murphy has his squad playing with an edge that was not seen during the Craig Counsell era. Noticeably Milwaukee is playing scrappy baseball both on and off the field. Players showing emotion and getting heated has been prevalent early on. Additionally the Brewers have been bunting, executing hit and runs, stealing bases, taking the extra base, and overall making a lot of winning baseball plays.
Health will play a factor for all teams in the National League Central.

Great as it is that the Brewers are getting recognition for a good start it was mentioned during this Fox Sports MLB segment that whichever teams stays healthy will have a good shot at winning the division. All teams seemingly started the year short handed in some regard, but the big difference for Milwaukee is that they are winning despite this.
