Chicago Cubs prepare for seven-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers

The Chicago Cubs face a critical stretch as they play the Milwaukee Brewers seven times over the next 10 days. Currently trailing the division-leading Brewers by eight games, the Cubs must secure a series win to remain in contention for the National League Central title. The Brewers hold a 4-2 advantage in the season series thus far and are currently pursuing the No. 1 seed in the National League. While the Cubs possess a strong offensive unit, they face a challenge against the Brewers' pitching staff, which includes starters Logan Henderson, Kyle Harrison, and Jacob Misiorowski. The Cubs enter this period following three consecutive series losses, while the Brewers have won five straight series.
