I know it's still early in the season, but I think this series is a very big one. Obviously, it is big with 4 games against the Cubs but I think we can
really put the Cubs out of it or they may be able to start a hot streak and overtake the division.
If the Brewers are able to get a split or even take 3 of 4 from the Cubs I think it will really get them going and be big blow to the Cubs and they may just start to fade. Everyone, including me, sees that the Cubs have talent and have been waiting for the to put it all together and it has not happened. I think if they are able to sweep the Brewers or themselves take 3 of 4 they may put it together and go on a hot streak for the second half.
Obviously it is just a series in early July but I think it may have significant barring on the rest of the season for both teams. I don't have any statistics to back this up, I just remember the A-Ram walk off two years ago and saw what that did. It's just a gut feeling for me... I think the Brewers (and probably Cardinals will stick around with them) can get some breathing room with the rest of the division after this series....as well the Cubs could begin their very hot streak after this series and start to play the baseball we thought they might early in the season.
