Prediction: Atlanta Braves VS Milwaukee Brewers 2025-06-09
The Atlanta Braves, with their mediocre 27-37 record, are somehow favored over the Milwaukee Brewers, who are actually having a decent season at 35-31. I guess that's what happens when you've got a big-name pitcher like Chris Sale on the mound. But let's not forget, Sale is no spring chicken, and his best days might be behind him.
The Braves have a 9-3 record as moneyline favorites with odds of -190 or shorter, which is impressive, but they're also facing a Brewers team that's won 12 of 32 games as underdogs. So, don't count out the Brew Crew just yet.
The over/under for this game is set at 7.5, and considering the Braves have gone over in 24 of their games, while the Brewers have done the same in 24 of their 66 chances, I'd say the over is a decent bet. But my best bet for this game is the Braves -1.5. With Sale on the mound, I think they've got a good chance of winning by at least two runs, especially if the Brewers' bats can't get going against the veteran lefty.
So, there you have it. Take the Braves -1.5 at +2.0 (or close to it, depending on the book). And if you're feeling fancy, throw a few bucks on the over 7.5. Just don't say I didn't warn you if the game ends up being a 2-1 pitcher's duel.
Best Bet: Atlanta Braves -1.5 (+2.0)
