Coming off solid back-to-back series wins against the rival Minnesota Twins and Chicago Cubs out of the All-Star break, the Brewers now return home to take on the Miami Marlins to begin their second-half home schedule. Milwaukee faced Miami in Florida back in May, dropping two of three to the last-place squad.
The Marlins have an extremely depleted pitching staff, with Eury Pérez, Sixto Sánchez, Jesús Luzardo, Josh Simpson, Ryan Weathers, Sandy Alcantara, and Braxton Garrett all facing extended stays on the injured list. That leaves Miami in a similar situation to Milwaukee, having sent 15 players out for starts this season.
