Fresh off a dominant series win, the red-hot Milwaukee Brewers have a strong trio of starting pitchers lined up against the Seattle Mariners.
The Milwaukee Brewers may not be ranked No. 1 in MLB.com's power rankings, but they just took three out of four games against the back-to-back World Series champions.
This is a Brewers team that sits at 77-48 and is one win shy of being an incredible 30 games over .500.
Neither Jacob Misiorowski nor Logan Henderson will pitch in this series, but the Brewers still have an incredible one-two combo to get things started against the Seattle Mariners.
From there, it seems like Robert Gasser has won the No. 5 spot over Shane Drohan, but a decision hasn't exactly been confirmed at this point in time as to whether or not the Brewers will continue to use a six-man rotation.
Bryce Miller opens the series against Kyle Harrison
All three starting pitching matchups are incredibly intriguing for different reasons. To start, the 59-66 Mariners are tasked with playing a dominant left-handed pitcher in Harrison. It's hard to say if he's the Brewers' No. 2 or No. 3, and one could argue there's even a case to be made that he's somehow No. 4 now that Dustin May is in the fold.
Regardless, Bryce Miller brings his 4-6 record and strong 3.39 ERA to American Family Field against Harrison, a guy who is 9-3 with a 3.47 ERA.
Logan Gilbert vs. May in game two
It's hard to say whether this game has the best starting pitching matchup or if it's coming the night prior. Logan Gilbert sits at 9-7 with a 3.28 ERA, but the most impressive part is his 152 strikeouts.
While he's still quite a bit behind Misiorowski, it's not like anyone is going to catch him this season. As for May, he's been stellar, to say the least, since coming to the Brewers. Overall, he's 6-7 with a 4.13 ERA and has 117 strikeouts, which is three more than Harrison.
George Kirby ends the series against Gasser
There's usually a clear game in a series where the starting pitching matchup isn't that strong, but that simply isn't the case in this series. George Kirby may have a losing record (8-9), but he, Gilbert, and Miller all have ERAs under 4.00, and Miller is the lone starter in this trio with fewer than 100 strikeouts this season.
Gasser has proved his worth time and time again, but he'll have to do so once more in the series finale. He's the Brewers' weakest starter in this series, but he could give them a huge advantage as he's one of two lefty starters the Mariners have to face.
