State of the NL Central: July 3

For now, the N.L. Central appears to be turning into a two-team race, with the Cubs waking up Tuesday morning one game behind the Brewers, but don’t ever count the Cardinals out. Here’s what all five teams have in store for the rest of this week.

The Brewers were all about splitting series last week, and it cost them. They faced off against two of the worst teams in either league (sorry, Reds, I know you’re getting better, but you’re still not great), and even against bottom dwelling teams, they could only manage to win half their games last week.
