What to Watch For

The public betting more on the OVER with a number that continues trending down towards 8.5, then consider the UNDER.  We should know which side is seeing the most action early in this one.  More lopsided action on the Brewers and a line dropping back below -131 encouraging more action on Milwaukee could be reason to pull the trigger on St. Louis.  But this is going to have to be very convincing as Milwaukee is 8-2 in the last ten meetings.

Expected Starting Pitchers

Michael Wacha STL (0-0, 5.28) vs. Corbin Burnes MIL (0-1, 10.05)

Wacha, at least, is a solid pitcher who is yet to win in 2019.  Burnes, on the other hand, owns a 10.05 ERA with two no-decisions and a loss.  In that loss, Milwaukee permitted 14 runs.  His other two starts featured games with nine and thirteen runs scored, respectively.

A better starter than Burnes and we would probably be all over the UNDER.

Wacha is yet to have a loss.  All of his starts have resulted in no-decisions. That said, each one feature more runs scored than the current total.

St. Louis ranks 7th in the MLB for best relievers.  The Brewers are in the middle of the pack here.

The problem of course is that Milwaukee has won eight of the last ten meetings.
