With the Texas Rangers struggling and the Milwaukee Brewers on a roll, MLB Network analyst Greg Amsinger has predicted a trade between the two teams.
The Milwaukee Brewers reportedly hope to have veteran first baseman Rhys Hoskins back from a sprained left thumb in the second half of August. However, by the time he returns, it could be too late. Andrew Vaughn may have already hijacked his spot in the lineup by then at this rate, which the team seems at peace with.

Jackson Chourio singled home Sal Frelick with the winning run in the 10th inning as the Milwaukee Brewers rallied to beat Los Angeles 3-2 to complete their first home sweep of the Dodgers in franchise history.
Tyler Glasnow returned to the starting rotation, but the Los Angeles Dodgers didn't return to the win column. After staging a ninth-inning comeback Wednesday, the Milwaukee Brewers (53-40) swept the defending World Series champions with a 10th-inning walk-off win.
Glasnow gets his first start since April 27 as the Dodgers attempt to avoid being swept in back to back series. Glasnow allowed two or fewer earned runs in four out of five starts this year.
The Chicago Cubs manager is going out of his way to praise his team, even if it means overlooking his former one.
