Brewers vs. Cubs: A Masterclass in Underwhelming
August 21, 2025 – Wrigley Field’s Most Boring Chapter

The Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers are set to clash in what promises to be a statistical snoozer. With Colin Rea’s sub-4.00 ERA and Jacob Misiorowski’s historically leaky ERA (4.50, per the odds), this game is tailor-made for a low-scoring, double-digit-under kind of night. The implied total is 7 runs, and the Cubs’ recent 43-of-73 Under trend? That’s not a coincidence—it’s a cry for help.

Why the Under 7 (-125) is Your Best Friend
The Cubs’ offense has the punch of a sleep-deprived toddler, and the Brewers’ lineup? Well, they’re still reeling from their 12-game road trip. Rea’s 4.20 ERA and Misiorowski’s 1.50 WHIP (yes, that’s bad) suggest both starters will be too busy avoiding contact to score runs. Lay the -125 on Under 7—it’s basically a guaranteed nap.

Prop Bets to Steal (While Avoiding Doubles)
- Isaac Collins & Michael Busch: Doubles Over 0.5 (-165 each)
These two are doubles darlings. Collins (-165) and Busch (-165) are both -165 to hit a double. Stack ’em in a same-game parlay and call it “Double Trouble.” Just don’t expect a home run—they’re more about the twos.
- Shota Imanaga: Strikeouts Under 4.5 (-115)
The Cubs’ ace is -115 to strike out fewer than 4.5 batters. If you’ve seen his 2025 season, you know: Imanaga’s Ks are rarer than a rain delay in Arizona.
- Quinn Priester: Earned Runs Over 1.5 (+130)
Priester’s 5.80 ERA screams “overachiever in the wrong game.” Bet he’ll cough up at least 2 ERs (+130) and call it a night.

Final Prediction
This game will end 3-2 Cubs in 9 innings. The real winners? Anyone who bets the Under and then streams a movie instead. The real losers? The fans, who’ll be asking, “Was that even baseball?”

Implied probabilities: Under 7 (55.6%), Cubs ML (57.1%), Brewers ML (47.6%).

TL;DR: Sleep in a chair. Bet the Under. Thank me later. 🌛⚾
