ROGERS' RUN LINE RIOT!
(MLB) Cincinnati vs. Milwaukee,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -160.00 Cincinnati (Away)
Result: Win
The 5-5 Brewers are struggling to keep pace and are down a couple of starters. They can't hit lefties lately. Today's pitcher, Alexander is a reliever/spot starter, who has pitched two starts recently to mixed results. His starts are short as would be expected. He gave up 3 runs over 4+ innings in his last appearance.
The Reds are off a pair of winning series, are 4-2 in September, and hitting well in recent games. We saw the Reds take off earlier in the season. They don't usually have much success vs the Brewers.
Lodolo a promising rookie left-hander has also had some mixed results lately, but is very good when on. He has tossed a pair of 6 and 7 inning shutouts, mixed in with poorer results. He has tended to struggle on the road to date.
Neither bullpen has been especially sharp lately, and the Brewers will need to turn to it early. With 2 of their last 3 starters lasting only 2+ innings and a double header yesterday, their relievers may be over-extended today. Take the underdog Reds
