The Brewers and the Reds recently played each other. In fact it's only been three games since the two teams faced off. In that series the Brewers took 2 out of 3 after which they swept the Pirates. Still the Brewers are only 2.5 games up on the Reds. This is still very much a battle for the basement in the NL Central.
Nothing has really changed since the last series. Except perhaps the Brewers standings in the race for best draft position. After winning 5 out of their last 6 the Brewers have jumped/fallen to the 7th worst record in baseball or the 7th overall draft position in the 2016 MLB Draft.
