"This is math by Milwaukee, as inscrutable to those who would like to emulate it as it is indefatigable regardless of who participates in it."

"The Brewers are so much greater than the sum of their parts, so consistently, that they could make a reasonable observer wonder whether he or she knew anything about baseball math at all. They lead MLB with 68 wins as of Tuesday despite spending about a third as much on their payroll as the sport’s highest spenders. They do not hit for much power, and they let go of big stars year after year, only to find they did not need them much anyway. The Brewers are the best team in baseball. That shouldn’t be possible."

From "Milwaukee has the most wins in the sport despite fielding a largely anonymous roster. 'You don’t know why, and I don’t know why,' its manager says" (WaPo).
