Dodgers vs Brewers: The Los Angeles Dodgers will start a three-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers this weekend after an off day for both teams. Game 1 starts on Friday evening at American Family Field.

Los Angeles has seemingly recovered from its mini-slump at the start of the month. They have seven wins from the last eight games after taking the series against the San Diego Padres on Wednesday. The Dodgers lead the National League West once again with a 31-29 record.

Milwaukee is quite possibly the hottest team in the MLB right now after collecting 15 wins from their past 20 games. They completely outclassed archrivals, the Chicago Cubs, in a three-game sweep at Wrigley Field this week. They now lead the NL Central with a 29-18 record.

Dodgers vs. Brewers Game 1: Starting Pitchers

Justin Wrobleski takes the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1. The 25-year-old lefty is the surprising star of their rotation this season with 1.3 bWAR over his eight outings thus far. Despite having only 27 strikeouts in 50.2 innings, he holds a 6-1 record with a 2.49 ERA.

Logan Henderson will be the starting pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday. The 24-year-old rookie is proving to be a very reliable performer at the back of their rotation. He logged 18.0 innings over his four starts this year, posting a 3.50 ERA with 23 strikeouts and a 1.056 WHIP.
