Milwaukee Brewers vs. Miami Marlins Prediction
I really like this bet, it’s going to be a sweat but that just makes it more fun. Eric Lauer is on the bump for Milwaukee and he’s been stellar this year. The man has allowed 1 run or less in his last four starts and his lone bad start was his first game of the year. He’s now into full swing and I’m a big believer of his. He gets a great matchup today against Miami who struggles against left-handed pitching hitting a mere .212 against them. Miami has been swinging a cold bat as well as they’ve scored 3 or less in 6 of their last 8 games.
Marlins score just over 4 runs a game but this just isn’t a good matchup for them and the number is inflated with a handful of big offensive outputs. Marlins have hit this prop for us in 18/32 (56%) despite averaging over 4 runs a game. Eric Lauer has faced off against these Marlins bats in 26 at-bats. He has only allowed 4 hits and no RBIs. These Marlins have a combined .153 batting average against him and he’s only walked one batter. I’m not just riding with Lauer though, this is a complete game bet so I’m rocking with the bullpen too.
Josh Hader has been flawless this year, the lefty has pitched 12.1 innings in high-pressure situations and hasn’t allowed a run yet. Being a lefty also helps him against this Marlins team who can’t seem to hit them. Devin Williams' ERA is inflated due to giving up 3 runs to the Reds four days ago but otherwise, he has been fantastic. In Williams' last 10 games he has only allowed a run in that Reds game, he has been perfect other than that. Eric Lauer should go 6 innings and then the specialists come in, I think Marlins should score maybe 2 or 3 but asking for 4+ seems like a lot today. We ride!
