The Milwaukee Brewers were off to a hot start, but they dropped off. Their 2004 season ended at the bottom of the division with a record of 67-94. Craig Counsell was a member of this team.
Other big names on the roster included Ben Sheets and Geoff Jenkins. This was their first time as a National League team that they started off with a 4-2 record.
The outlook was much better for the Milwaukee Brewers a year later. They finished with a record of 81-81.
