Brewers lose - so up 2 games in the loss column on both them and the Padres with 47 left
Playoff Magic # = 45

To be clear, there's zero that's bad about Harper's eventual return.
But one thing they'll have to live with is that it takes occasionally being the DH fully out of play for Schwarber, Castellanos, Hoskins, Realmuto.

Given what we’ve seen all year,Castellanos has to be the odd man out vs tough RH pitchers
The book on him is so obvious,it’s painful to watch. Sliders on/just off the corner ,fast balls up and in ,bad sliders in the LH hitters batters box…Easy peasy
They have to get him closer to the plate..Too late this year,but massive overhaul in the off-season

I agree with the calls to keep Stott as the leadoff hitter. It will be interesting, though, to figure out where Schwarber should be placed. He shouldn't be lower than fifth, but even with the home runs, his strikeout rate is troublesome for having him see more at-bats with men on base.
The best approach might be:
SS Stott
1B Hoskins
DH Harper
C Realmuto
LF Schwarber
RF Castellanos
3B Bohm
2B Segura
CF Marsh

Really surprising and disappointing that Castellanos has not emerged the guy who can protect Harper in the lineup. I hope he didn't test positive for something he no longer takes to improve his performance. Harper should be hitting second followed by Castellanos, Schwarber and Hoskins. We really don't have a leadoff hitter but I would not let the right left thing dictate that it had to be a rh hitter.
