Brewers (Peralta) vs. Pirates (Kuhl)
Losers of three straight games, the Buc’s lost a key piece of their offense when they traded Adam Frazier. It can’t be very comfortable in the Pirates dugout, wondering who is next to fall. Meanwhile Milwaukee has bolstered their already potent hitting lineup. The Brewers have taken 2 straight against the Pirates and could bring out the Brooms tonight.
It is Freddy Peralta (7-3, 2.34) for the Brewers vs. Bucs’ Chad Kuhl (3-5, 4.38). Kuhl has pitched well in his last three starts, allowing only 4 runs over 16+ innings. He outpitched Peralta in their last meeting. Peralta has been a mainstay in the Brewers’ lineup this year. He has fared well against the Pirates in previous meetings and has been excellent on the road.
Looking at the bullpens, Milwaukee’s usually effective relief corp has been even better lately. The Pirates’ pen has been so-so, and their closer Rodriguez’s star has plummeted of late. He is another candidate before the trade deadline.
The Brewers have an excellent road record of 30-18. They have won 4 of 5, and look to be the class of their division. The Pirates are going nowhere fast, and look to be gutted by the trade deadline. They are 8-16 as home underdogs and struggle against right-handed starters. I like Kuhl as a starter, but you can’t win if your lineup can’t score. Milwaukee is a firm favorite today. I am wagering on Peralta and Milwaukee -1.5.
