This might work to the Brewers advantage as the bad parts of the dodgers bullpen are much worse than the Brewers

The NLCS schedule won't allow the Brewers to manage this series like the NLDS. Everyone will not be available every game. You will need to rest people and you will need more bulk innings. If a starter can't get out of the first, it could have significant, lasting impacts on the series

Yeah, that helps. My point is more about having to use your B bullpen andat least considering the impact of in-game decisions on future games, whereas in this series everyone was available always

A healthy DL Hall would be a nice boost
