The Milwaukee Brewers currently have the worst odds to win the World Series of any team left in the postseason. At +3800, they're bringing up the rear alongside the Toronto Blue Jays, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.

But those odds don't do a good job of capturing just how talented this team really is.

The Brewers' pitching staff is elite. Milwaukee's pitchers collectively had the 11th-best ERA (4.16) in the MLB this season, though that doesn't tell the whole story. Milwaukee actually had the league's second-best expected fielding-independent pitching mark (3.75). The Brewers were just .02 off the league's best figure.

That elite arm talent is going to make Milwaukee really difficult to beat in a postseason series.

The Brewers have a much better shot at shocking the world with a 2020 World Series title than their odds would lead you to believe.
