Overall, Milwaukee holds the second best record in all of MLB at the moment, as the ball club is 58-33. The Brewers are right behind the 60-33 Los Angeles Dodgers . Milwaukee also holds a strong seven-game lead in the National League Central standings.
The Brewers feature a talented roster. They will likely look to make a trade or two before the upcoming deadline, though. Milwaukee may be especially aggressive when it comes to adding starting pitching given Brandon Woodruff's injury absence.
