MLB Betting Trends
Milwaukee
The Brewers have now won five straight road games and seven straight against NL West opponents. They also have won six of Anderson’s last seven road starts.
Colorado
The Rockies have lost six of Freeland’s last seven home starts and four of their last five games following a loss.
Prediction:
The Brewers have found ways to win the last two nights and I think they will do that again tonight. The pitching matchup is relatively equal, but the trends are backing Milwaukee right now. Their bullpen is more reliable and Colorado has been struggling at home this season.
The Pick: Milwaukee Brewers +120
