THE PROF’S UPPER-DECK BLOWOUT
(MLB) Pittsburgh vs. Milwaukee,
Money Line: -151.00 Milwaukee (Home)
Result: Win
The Milwaukee Brewers will go for a sweep at home against the Pittsburgh Pirates in the final game of a three-game set. The Pittsburgh Pirates are 34-35 overall this season after a big start to the season. The Pirates have lost five straight games and six of their last seven. They have been outscored 10-4 in this series so far. The Pirates will try and avoid the sweep by sending Louis Ortiz to the mound. He is 1-3 this season with a 4.64 ERA. He has been worse on the road, posting a 6.75 ERA. The Pirates are 2-4 this year in games he starts. The Brewers came into this series having lost six in a row before taking the first two games against the Pirates. Freddy Peralta will get the start in this one. He is 5-6 this season with a 4.73 ERA. He has pitched a lot better at home this season, posting a 3.86 ERA. The Brewers are 6-7 this season when he starts. Neither team is hitting the ball particularly well. The Pirates are hitting just .167 against the Brewers during this series. The Brewers ers are hitting under .200 as well but they seem to get their hits when it matters. They have outscored the Pirates 10-4 in the first two games. The Brewers have gotten the hits when needed and Ortiz is not a big K guy. I like the Brewers to score just enough to get the win and sweep.
