"They lost a set to the Philadelphia Phillies, but bounced back with a sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Freddy Peralta continued his excellent season with five shutout innings against Philly, but two injuries are looming. Jackson Chourio missed a game with a hamstring injury, the same issue that kept him out a month. And Christian Yelich sat with a back issue, which he had surgically repaired in the offseason."
"The Phillies took two of three from both the Brewers and the Marlins this week to stay at number two. They are 83-60, six games behind Milwaukee for the top seed in the NL and seven games ahead of the Mets for the NL East lead. Trea Turner left Sunday's game with a hamstring injury, which would be a huge loss for their offense. Turner leads the National League in hits and has the best OPS of his Phillies career this year."
Milwaukee holds the top ranking after a 4-2 week, sweeping Pittsburgh but dropping a set to Philadelphia. Key Milwaukee players face injuries: Jackson Chourio missed a game with a recurring hamstring issue and Christian Yelich sat with a back problem after offseason surgery. Philadelphia remains second at 83-60, trailing Milwaukee for the top NL seed and leading the NL East, though Trea Turner exited a game with a hamstring injury. Toronto sits third after splitting with Cincinnati and losing two to New York, with bullpen struggles and Jeff Hoffman’s recent 11.81 ERA raising concerns.
