It is only July but a big series in the National League Central gets underway on Tuesday at 8:05pm EST as the Milwaukee Brewers (43-39) host the St. Louis Cardinals (45-39). The Brewers are not playing well, having lost four of their last five in MLB betting and they believe this is a must-win series against the Cardinals. “It’s crucial,” Ryan Braun said, “We don’t want to dig ourselves too big of a hole. It’s always important to have some momentum going into the second half to show everybody that we’re for real and that we can make a move and improve our ballclub.” “We need to be headed in the right direction and not the wrong direction in order to do that.” Milwaukee has won four of the six games against St. Louis this season but they are facing a St. Louis Cardinals team that has won four of their last five and has superstar Albert Pujols who is red-hot. Pujols leads the league with 31 home runs and 82 RBIs.
