MLB Betting Trends
Milwaukee
The over is 10-4 in the last 14 Brewers games on Wednesdays. Milwaukee is 10-4 in the last 14 meetings in St. Louis.
St. Louis
The over is 8-0 in the last eight Cardinals games overall. St. Louis is 4-1 in its last five games versus a right-handed starter.
Prediction:
Milwaukee’s bats were on fire last night, but expect it to cool down some today as that level of production is unsustainable. The Cardinals have done well lately against RHP and are familiar with Chacin. With St. Louis in need of a win more than the Brewers right now, I’m taking the hosts to take care of business.
