Milwaukee Brewers Fantasy Spin
Mike Moustakas will sit out Wednesday's game after getting hit in the hand by a pitch Tuesday against the Padres. X-rays were negative, so expectations are that he'll be fine in a couple of days. The Brewers will probably start both Hernan Perez and Travis Shaw on Wednesday.
San Diego Padres Fantasy Spin
Manny Machado went 2-for-4 with an RBI double in the Padres’ win over the Brewers on Tuesday. Machado was handed a one-game suspension for his actions following his ejection last Saturday, but is currently appealing and has remained in the Padres’ lineup. He extended their lead to a pair of runs with a two-out, RBI ground-rule double off Brewers starter Brandon Woodruff in the fifth inning. The 26-year-old shortstop owns a seven-game hit streak and has raised his full-season line to .268/.348/.468 with 42 runs scored, 14 homers, 41 RBI and one steal across 305 plate appearances.
MLB Betting Trends
Milwaukee
The Brewers are 1-4 in their last five road games and are winless in their last eight games versus a left-handed starter.
San Diego
The Padres have dropped four of Matt Strahm’s last five starts but have won four out of their last five games overall.
Prediction:
The under is 5-2 in the last seven meetings between these tow teams at Petco Park and is a perfect 4-0 in Zach Davies’ last four starts versus the Padres. The under is also 16-5-1 in Davies’ last 22 road starts and is 34-15-3 in his last 52 outings overall. On the other side, the under is 11-4-2 in Strahm’s last 17 starts and is 11-5-2 in the Padres’ last 18 games.
The Pick: Brewers/Padres UNDER 8.5
