MLB 3-Pack
(MLB) Milwaukee vs. Pittsburgh, 07/18/2017 3:05 PM, Score: 3 - 4
Money Line: -140.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Win
Play: Pittsburgh Pirates
Rating: 8/10*

The red hot Pittsburgh Pirates are 8-2 through their last 10 games and look set to climb the standings in the NL Central. They opened the week with a 4-2 win against the Milwaukee Brewers and I predict another Pirates win tonight.

Ivan Nova (9-6, 3.21 ERA) will toe the slab for Pittsburgh. He's 6-2 with a 2.63 ERA home at PNC Park on the season and 1-1 with a 3.32 ERA in three career starts against Milwaukee.

The Brewers turn to Junior Guerra (1-3, 4.78 ERA) who has struggled with his command all season and issued three free passes or more in each of his last nine starts. He's failed to pitch more than four innings in each of his last three starts while posting a 10.32 ERA. He is 1-0 with a 2.16 ERA in five games (four starts) against the Pirates, but I think they'll get the better of him tonight.
