Milwaukee is inching their way up in the standings in the NL Central. At .500 through just over a third in the season they can go anywhere.
Milwaukee Brewers
The Brewers will be looking to jump on the Pirates and continue their winning ways, 6-4 in last 10 heading into Thursday. The offense is not quite there yet but the pitching has held up. They are 4th in the Majors in Ks. They can dominate you even though they use a lot of guys.
Milwaukee keeps waiting for Christian Yelich to get going. He is leading the team in homers and OPS but it is kind of by default. His batting average is just .205. Just because there are no fans does not mean he is not feeling some weight from that big contract.
Ace Brandon Woodruff is usually followed by Adrian Houser in the rotation. If that is the case here that is good for the Brewers. Houser has been nearly as sharp and his road splits are better than home. Josh Hader has yet to give up a hit this season.
Pittsburgh Pirates
Pittsburgh is probably the worst team in baseball. In fact I am pretty sure of it. They do not hit well and their pitching has been killed by injuries. Even healthy, there was not a ton there. They are going to be a fade target the rest of the season and truthfully we might see some epically bad overall results. They have one quality start on the season.
Chad Kuhl has made a couple of starts and actually held his own in both of them. He does have to worry about the long ball but he might give the Pirates a fighting chance. As is befitting a bad team the bullpen has been terrible for Pittsburgh this season. They got trounced in both of Kuhls starts.
Free Milwaukee Brewers vs. Pittsburgh Pirates MLB Prediction:
This is a fade of Pittsburgh here, you have to. The only question is whether you can go money line or run line. I think if Hauser gets the ball the run line is going to be the only option.
