Despite dropping three straight games to the Chicago Cubs, the Milwaukee Brewers are still sitting pretty, six games above the North Siders for first place in the NL Central. They're all but assured to be the first team in baseball to reach 80 wins, and regardless of how today's game finishes, they'll have at least a five-game lead in the NL Central with 34 games left to play.
Still, there's no benefit to getting complacent. The Brewers have an obvious hole in the middle of their lineup in the form of Jackson Chourio, who has been out since the beginning of the month with a hamstring injury.
