Schule's MLB MERCHANT of DEATH - COL@MIL
(MLB) Colorado vs. Milwaukee, 04/08/2015 4:10 PM, Score: 5 - 4
Money Line: -149.00 Milwaukee (Home)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* play on the Milwaukee #Brewers.

The Brewers have been rocked by Colorado in each of the first two games of this series, but I like their chances of dishing out some payback at Miller Park tonight. They have an experienced pitcher matched up against a rookie, and that could spell disaster for the visitors.

Eddie Butler will toe the rubber for the Rockies, and he was roughed up badly in his three appearances last season. He was tagged for 12 runs on 23 hits over 16 innings, and had his season cut short due to injury. He didn't see much action this spring, and facing a hungry Milwaukee team in their hitter's park is a tough spot for the 24 year old.

The Brewers will hand the ball to Wily Peralta, who impressed this spring. The right-hander was 10-6 with a 3.71 ERA in 17 starts in Milwaukee last year, and he won both his starts versus the Rockies.

Given the progress made last season, all indications are that this should be a breakout season for Peralta.

Take MIL.
