Pirates have 3 at home with Red Sox and then 3 with Milwaukee at home.  Then they go on the road with 4 at Atlanta and finish at Cinncy for 3. 

 

St. Louis has 3 at home with Brewers and 3 at home with the Reds.  They finish with 3 at Cubs and 3 at Arizona.

 

Brewers have 3 at St. Louis, 3 at Pirates and 3 at Reds. They finish at home with the Cubbies. 

 

Pitchers for the Cards series are Peralta vs. Lackey on tues. I like Big Will here.  Fiers vs. Lynn on Wed. Not sure if Fiers will be over what happened in his last start and the brewers have trouble with Lynn. Thurs. features Loshe vs. Wainwright. Call me crazy but I like the Brewers chances here. Wainwright has struggled lately.  

 

Pirates series has Gallrado vs. Locke, Garza vs. Vloquez and Peralta vs. Worley.  They just have to sweep the Pirates to have any chance.  I keep playing Clark at 1st base some. I know he's only batting .235 but his power has to be respected. Then use Overbay to pinch hit against the right matchup. Still have Reynolds for defense then.

Clearly the Cardinals have the easiest remaining schedule out of the three teams but the good news is to some extent the Brewers control their own destiny.  They get one more shot at both Pittsburgh and STL and that's all you can ask for at this point.

 

I'm thinking like Kiel right now.   Hope for the best but prepare for the worst

9 game road trip in 10 days near seasons end, just brutal.

 

The Cards and Bucs are both hot and the Reds just split with the Crew at home. 

 

The Cards pulled Lackey tonight, so they can pitch their 3 top Pitchers(sans Wacha) to take the Brewers out.

 

Odds are stacked pretty high against the Crew to end the year.

 

The Tuna will still go to see the Sat game against the Cubs to end the year.

I'd rather have them control their own destiny instead of having other teams try and help them.

 

GO BREW CREW!
