The biggest Brewer series since the season ender in Baltimore 26 years ago is upon us. The Brewers trail the Cubs by 4.5 in the Central. Philly and Houston are 4 back in the wildcard. St Louis is 4.5 back. If the Brewers go 4-0 or 3-1 in Philly they most likely will be playing in October, and with 6 left against the Cubs the division wouldn't be out of the question especially since the Cubs have a very difficult schedule with the majority of their games on the road and all of their games against teams in the playoff hunt. 2-2 and the Phillies would still be 4 back with only 12 to play. Go 1-3 or 0-4 and the advantage swings to the Phillies and Astros since they have easier schedules the rest of the way The Card still have a very slim chance, but a tougher schedule than the Phils or Astros. The schedules break down as follows: Brewers: 6 home games, 10 road games 4 at Philly 6 vs Cubs (3 road, 3 at home) 3 at Cincinnati, a team they have struggled with 3 vs Pitt at home Philly: 10 home games and 6 road games 4 at home with the Brewers 6 vs Atl (3 home, 3 road) 3 at Florida 3 vs Wash Houston: Has 10 home games and 6 road games 4 with Pittsburgh (1 home, 3 away) 3 with the Cubs at home 3 at Florida 3 with Cincinnati 3 with Atlanta Cubs: 6 home, 11 road games 4 vs StL (1 road, 3 home) 3 at Hou 6 vs Milw (3 home, 3 road) 4 at NY Mets St Louis: 8 home 9 road 4 with Cubs (1 home, 3 road) 3 at Pit 6 Cin (3 road, 3 home) 4 home with Arizona We should have a pretty good idea by Sunday night if we can breathe a sigh of relief, or if we will be saying wait till next year.
