The last week has been evidence of what this Milwaukee offense might look like at its best. After blitzing Philadelphia in the first two games of the series, Milwaukee could tally its second straight series sweep after taking down the Boston Red Sox. That\u2019s two teams that view themselves as genuine contenders, and the Brewers<\/a> have faced them both with inspiring performances.<\/p>\n

Entering Sunday\u2019s game, the Brewers\u2019 recent hot streak has seen their offensive numbers flare. In the last 15 days, the Brewers rank<\/a> second in runs scored, fifth in OPS, and second in stolen bases. <\/p>\n

Jose Quintana was added to the roster in a transaction move this morning in order to make today\u2019s start. In the corresponding move, left-hander Tyler Alexander was designated for assignment. After a solid start to the year (2.84 ERA through first four outings, spanning 12 2\u20443 innings), Alexander has struggled for the last month and a half, and particularly in the last couple of weeks \u2014 he\u2019s allowed 11 earned runs in his last six appearances, spanning 6 1\u20443 innings, including five runs in the ninth inning yesterday.<\/p>\n

As for Quintana, his performance this season has been admirable despite a lack of flashy numbers. He doesn\u2019t strike out many batters, but he\u2019s allowed more than one run in only a single start this year. His 2.65 ERA across 34 innings is a testament to his ability to get outs despite a lack of wipeout stuff. <\/p>\n

For Philadelphia, Ranger Su\u00e1rez enters on a solid streak of his own. He didn\u2019t concede a run in either of his last two starts. He has given the Phillies<\/a> depth, too, working at least six innings in all of his previous four starts. <\/p>\n

The Brewers have centerfielder Jackson Chourio in the leadoff spot for today\u2019s matchup. He\u2019ll be followed by William Contreras, Christian Yelich, and Rhys Hoskins.<\/p>\n

In the middle of the order, Daz Cameron, Sal Frelick, and Caleb Durbin hope to add to the offensive threat. The lineup rounds out with Joey Ortiz and Brice Turang. The full lineups can be seen below.<\/p>\n

First pitch today is at 12:35 p.m. CT and can be seen on FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin and heard on the Brewers Radio Network.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The last week has been evidence of what this Milwaukee offense might look like at its best.
