The Milwaukee Brewers are projected to open the MLB playoffs on Saturday, October 3, at American Family Field if they retain their top seed position. Current standings indicate they would skip the wild-card round and face the winner of a Cubs-Diamondbacks series in the NL Division Series. Potential scheduling conflicts arise with the Green Bay Packers, particularly on October 11, when they host Chicago, which could coincide with the start of the NLCS. Another conflict is expected on October 18, when the Packers visit the Cowboys, overlapping with a possible Game 6 of the NLCS.
