MLB Betting Trends
Milwaukee
The Brewers have won 11 of their last 15 road games and 11 of Suter’s last 16 starts. They also have won 13 of their last 16 games against a team with a winning percentage below .400.
Chicago
Chicago is 2-6 in its last 8 Sunday games and 1-5 in their last six home games against a left-handed starter.
Prediction:
Covey has some promising numbers through limited action and I think he can continue that against an average Milwaukee lineup. However, he doesn’t get deep into games and will eventually hand the ball over to an awful bullpen. I think this game will be close for a while before Milwaukee pulls away late.
The Pick: Milwaukee Brewers -165
