With the month of August coming to a close and the MLB season approaching its final month of baseball, the Brew Crew look to a 4-game road series out west to the Los Angeles Dodgers and then a 3-game home series against rival Chicago Cubs.  With the Brewers falling behind faster to the division leading St. Louis Cardinals and the amount of games running low, they'll need to find a way to turn it around to catch a Wild Card spot.

Coming out of the 2022 Trade Deadline, you Milwaukee Brewers looked to have 3 series within the division, including a crucial 3-game series against the competing St. Louis Cardinals, plus a 2-game home series against a good Tampa Bay Rays team.  Knowing that the sending of Josh Hader to the San Diego Padres was a blow to the morale and confidence to the team [what does it say when management sends an All-Star to another competing NL team], how will the Brew Crew bounce back.  Come join the Brew City Couch Committee crew to discuss their thoughts on these 4 series for the Milwaukee Brewers.
