Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Milwaukee Brewers: A Tale of Two Teams (and a Few Desperate Hitters)
Date: August 28, 2025 | Time: 6:10 PM ET | Location: Milwaukee
The Setup:
The Arizona Diamondbacks (-171 underdogs) are about to face the Milwaukee Brewers (+143 favorites) in what promises to be a game where the Brewers’ "Brew Crew" will try to drown the D-backs in runs, while Arizona hopes to float on the back of Ketel Marte’s doubles prop (Over 0.5 at +310). Spoiler: Neither might.
Why the Brewers Are Favored:
- They’re 83-50, own a .258 team BA (2nd in MLB), and have a 3.62 ERA (3rd). Their offense? 682 runs scored (19th).
- Jose Quintana (3.32 ERA) starts for Milwaukee. He’s not a magician, but he’s trying to pitch.
Why Arizona Might Survive:
- Ketel Marte is literally the only reason to bet on this team. He’s hitting .300 with 26 HRs and 90 RBI. Also, his "Over 0.5 doubles" prop is +310. Take it. He’ll double or die trying.
- The D-backs’ lineup? 184 HRs, 5th in MLB. They’ll swing for the fences even if it kills them.
Key Prop Bets to Steal:
- Ketel Marte (Diamondbacks): Over 0.5 doubles (+310). Why? Because he’s Marte—he doubles or he dies.
- Christian Yelich (Brewers): Over 1.5 home runs (+200). Why? He’s Yelich. He’s obsessed with HRs.
- Total Game Runs: Under 9.0 (-110). Both teams’ pitchers are decent. This’ll be a pitcher’s duel, not a fireworks show.
The Prediction:
The Brewers win 4-2. Quintana will outpitch Nabil Crismatt (4.58 ERA), and Yelich will hit a solo shot to left. Marte will leg out a double to keep his prop bet alive, while the D-backs’ offense will resemble a group of accountants trying to bunt.
Final Score: Milwaukee 4, Arizona 2.
Prop Winners: Marte’s double, Yelich’s HR, Under 9 runs.
Final Joke:
The Diamondbacks will leave Milwaukee wondering, “Why did we bet on this team?” while the Brewers sip beer and laugh. It’s a brew-tiful game. 🍻
