This bet is worth all of the juice. Marcus Stroman has hit this in 14 out of 18 games on the season and has already shown to be effective against the Milwaukee Brewers this year. In his first start in the season, he faced off against Milwaukee and threw six innings which is exactly what we need.
Milwaukee Brewers vs. Chicago Cubs Prediction
Last year Stroman threw 7+ innings against Milwaukee twice; all we need from him today is six. He is on the road, where he seems to pitch slightly better. In his last 26.2 road innings, he has allowed just three earned runs. That was against the San Diego Padres, Philadelphia Phillies, Pittsburgh Pirates, and San Francisco Giants. You could argue that the Brewers are near the bottom of those teams listed. Milwaukee does see the second most pitches per plate appearance in the league, but Stroman’s hit rate is very encouraging, and so is the game's total of just eight runs. I think Stroman goes exactly six innings and allows just one run or two. The Chicago Cubs haven’t had a day off since May 22nd, so the bullpen has been used heavily. Eighteen outs and a dream, let's roll!
