After a bumpy first home stand following the All-Star break, the Atlanta Braves hit the road to face the NL Central leading Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers have opened up a 2.5 game lead in the NL Central following an 8-2 run in their last 10 games including a sweep of the Reds.
The Brewers have built on their pitching for many years now, and even if their starting pitching is not what it once was due to the regression of Freddy Peralta and the constant injuries to Brandon Woodruff, they still have an elite bullpen. It is led by Devin Williams, whose high spin changeup has been one of the best pitches in baseball for the last several years.
