    From there, they build their playoff brackets, pick MVPs like Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Bobby Witt Jr., Shohei Ohtani, and Juan Soto, and even debate whether teams like the Atlanta Braves are being overrated heading into the season.

    Then it’s all about the Milwaukee Brewers—record predictions, breakout players, bold takes, disappointing candidates, and who leads the team in key categories for 2026.
