[QUOTE="IanKEvans2, post: 1395892, member: 12945"] To put the Brewers early season success into perspective, they were also playing good baseball. On 5/21/2017, the NL Central looked like this: 1. Brewers, 25-19 2. Cardinals, 22-19 3. Cubs, 22-20 4. Reds, 20-23 5. Pirates, 20-24 Milwaukee's bats leveled off as the season progressed, and their starting pitching didn't put them over the top. They finished with a solid 86-76 record, second place and 6 games behind the first place Cubs. I foresee a similar conclusion to their season. I think the Cardinals are more injured than up and down. St. Louis is more of a worry to me than Milwaukee, because I think they are more willing to make a deadline deal than the Brewers are. [/QUOTE]
