Milwaukee is sitting pretty; are the playoffs a lock at this point? (08.16.2021)

The Milwaukee Brewers won six of seven games last week and still have an eight-game lead in the National League Central. Is this team a lock for the playoffs, even as Cincinnati begins a favorable stretch of its schedule? Brewers reporter Tom Haudricourt and host JR Radcliffe ponder that question as well as the sensational outing by Corbin Burnes. Could he emerge as the frontrunning Cy Young candidate from the Brewers staff? They also discuss the strength of the roster post-COVID issues, Josh Hader's limited workload, the injury to John Curtiss and whether or not this Brewers team would rather stay locked in at a No. 2 seed in the National League instead of chase No. 1.
