They play the Cubs 7 times in the last 10 games, IIRC.
They can kill the Brewers this week. I don't think they really even need to sweep them, though that would help. The Brewers pitching staff - predictably ragged to begin with - has finally come apart. I never understood what they were doing there; you can't just go into the season with 2 starters of any significance and say "yeah, that'll be fine..."
Ideally you need 4 relatively dependable starters and another 3-4 young arms that can backfill. The Brewers, OTOH, took their slow pitch softball strategy of 2018 and turned it up to 11. It just never made sense.
