Both the Brewers and D-Backs are surging while the Rox are drifting aimlessly like a rudderless ship over the last week or two. Luckily, the Brewers have a weekend series against the Nats and do face Scherzer on Saturday.

If they blow this series, they could be in real trouble as they face both the Dodgers and D-Backs on the road over the next 10 days. My gut tells me they will be on the outside looking in by the end of next week since it's tough to just flip a switch, all gets fixed and considering they have lost 3 of the last 4 series.

Regardless of the expectations starting the season, when you are 21 games over .500 in late June, you should make the playoffs easily...this could be embarrassing.
