The morning line

MLB The Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs are the headliner tonight at Wrigley Field, two teams both fighting for playoff seeding with the Brewers sitting a game clear of Chicago in the standings. Keep an eye on the bullpens down the stretch, since a manager going to the pen too early has burned both clubs before, and the heart of each order will be looking to leave the yard in a getaway-day atmosphere. Elsewhere, watch the Braves stay hot against a punchless Nationals lineup, and the Dodgers try to hold serve at home against a Cardinals club still hanging around the fringes of the race.
