The Milwaukee Brewers were projected to finish third in the National League Central in 2021, but ended up taking home the division title with 95 wins. The top three in the rotation led the way, highlighted by SP Corbin Burnes and his Cy Young Award.
No huge moves were made during the offseason, but OF Hunter Renfroe and OF Andrew McCutchen were brought on board. Renfroe hit 31 home runs with Boston last season and could add to that total in his new hitter-friendly home park.
Below, we look at the Milwaukee Brewers MLB futures odds, including their projected 2022 win total and World Series odds at Tipico Sportsbook.
Milwaukee Brewers 2022 World Series odds
Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Thursday, March 31 at 1:21 a.m. ET.
Odds: +1200 (bet $100 to win $1,200)
Milwaukee is tied with the Chicago White Sox, New York Yankees, and New York Mets with the fourth shortest odds to win it all. The only teams ranked ahead are the Los Angeles Dodgers at +480 and the Houston Astros and Toronto Blue Jays at +900.
The Brewers are heavy favorites to win their division, and they certainly have the pitching to make a deep run in the playoffs. Not many teams can match up to their trio of starters that includes Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, and Freddy Peralta. Eric Lauer gives them a viable fourth option as well, and Aaron Ashby has electric stuff but a still-to-be-determined role.
Backing the BREWERS (+1200) to win the World Series for a 12-to-1 payoff looks like a risk worth taking.

Milwaukee Brewers 2022 playoff odds
Will Brewers make the playoffs: Yes -250 | No +200
Milwaukee was one of MLB’s top teams in 2021 and should be among the league’s best again in 2022. With the Cincinnati Reds, Chicago Cubs, and Pittsburgh Pirates in various stages of a rebuild, the Brewers find themselves in a pretty weak division.
It would qualify as a major surprise if Milwaukee failed to be among the 12 teams to make it to the postseason. Lock in BREWERS -250 and watch them coast into the playoffs.
Milwaukee Brewers 2022 win total
Over/Under: 88.5 (O: -125 | U: -105)
Milwaukee won 95 games a season ago, which tied for fourth best in all of baseball, though their +115 run differential ranked eighth best. Their offense should be a little better in 2022, as they’ll get a full season of SS Wily Adames and should get some level of rebound from both OF Christian Yelich and 1B Keston Hiura.
In a division where at least three teams figure to finish below .500, the Brewers should be able to continue piling up the wins on a consistent basis. Go with OVER 88.5.

Odds to win NL East Division
- Milwaukee Brewers -170 (bet $170 to win $100)
- St. Louis Cardinals +210 (bet $100 to win $210)
- Chicago Cubs +1200 (bet $100 to win $1,200)
- Cincinnati Reds +1300 (bet $100 to win $1,300)
- Pittsburgh Pirates +6000 (bet $100 to win $6,000)
Milwaukee finished five games ahead of St. Louis in 2021, and that appears to be the only team with a realistic shot of pushing them for the NL Central crown this season.
The Brewers have a huge edge on all of their divisional rivals in the rotation and also boast one of the best 1-2 punches out of the bullpen in RP Josh Hader and RP Devin Williams. They deserve to be heavily favored and BREWERS -170 is a strong play.
Odds to win National League
Odds: +550 (bet $100 to win $550)
The Brewers made an early exit in the playoffs last season, knocked out in four games by the eventual champion Braves in the Division series. Milwaukee has quality and depth all around, and is built for a long playoff run on the backs of its three aces in the rotation. Get in on BREWERS +550, as this could be the year they get to the World Series.
