Here is a link to a Bally Sports article about the Brewer chances to make the post season. From the article: Of all the models and simulations that Baseball-Reference uses, Milwaukee wins the World Series 10.5% of the time. That's No. 2 according to the projections in the National League and No. 4 in all of MLB trailing only Philadelphia (14.4%), the New York Yankees (11.5%) and Baltimore (10.9%).

Baseball-Reference needs to tweak their models and simulations to factor in this is Milwaukee.

Did they forget to account for the fact that Burnes pitches for the Orioles?
The Brewers are the biggest overachievers in baseball so far, and Murphy deserves consideration for manager of the year.
When you consider how young the team seems to be I thought many of the 26 active players were Brewer draft choices. I was surprised to find out only 6 of the 26 were drafted by Milwaukee. So it seems you have to give a lot of credit to the scouts who are recommending who to sign or trade for from existing teams. They have done a very good job.
