Despite the Milwaukee Brewers winning 15 of their last 16 games, holding a nine-game lead in the NL Central, and maintaining the best record in baseball for the last three weeks, they are about to get even better. Not only is the team set to return one of their best hitters in Jackson Chourio at some point in the next few weeks, but they are also nearing the returns of two slugging first basemen who could have a big impact on the Brewers' success down the stretch.
Last Thursday, the Brewers sent backup first baseman Jake Bauers to Triple-A Nashville on a rehab assignment.
