Prediction: Milwaukee Brewers VS Cincinnati Reds 2025-06-02
The battle for the Midwest, folks. The Cincinnati Reds, with their 29-31 record, are hosting the Milwaukee Brewers, who are sitting pretty at 32-28. Now, I know what you're thinking - "The Reds are at home, they must be the favorites, right?" And you're right, they are, with a moneyline price of around 1.79-1.88 across various bookmakers. But don't count out the Brewers just yet, they've got a sneaky 36.7% win rate as underdogs.
The pitching matchup features Brady Singer for the Reds, who will be facing off against Aaron Civale for the Brewers. Now, Singer's been decent, but Civale's been a bit of a wild card this season. The Reds' offense, led by Elly De La Cruz and his 12 home runs, will look to take advantage of Civale's inconsistencies.
On the other side, the Brewers have been raking, ranking 10th in the majors with 269 total runs. Jackson Chourio's been a beast, hitting .258 with 18 doubles and 9 home runs. If the Brewers can get to Singer early, they might just have a chance to pull off the upset.
My best bet for this game? I've got to go with the over 9.0 runs, priced around 1.83-1.95 across various bookmakers. Both teams have been scoring in bunches, and with the Reds' 1.207 WHIP and the Brewers' 3.99 ERA, I think we're in for a high-scoring affair. The Reds' strong offense, combined with the Brewers' ability to score runs, makes me think we'll see at least 10 runs in this one.
So, there you have it, folks. Take the over 9.0 runs, sit back, and enjoy the Midwest showdown. And remember, if you're betting on the Brewers, don't say I didn't warn you... just kidding, they've got a shot!
