Prop Bets: Philadelphia Phillies VS Milwaukee Brewers 2025-09-04
Phillies vs. Brewers: A Tale of Two Teams (and a Few Over/Under Bets)
The Milwaukee Brewers (-115) are the clear favorites at American Family Field, where they’ve been a fortress this season. The Philadelphia Phillies (+105) come in as road underdogs, and honestly, who can blame them? They’re 1-5 in their last six road games against winning teams—classic. The total is set at 7.5 runs, and 98.4% of the public is betting the over. If you’re not in on this, you’re fighting the crowd.
Key Props to Watch:
- Bryce Harper (PHI): Over 1.5 total bases (+110). Harper’s been a beast, but can he outslug Christian Yelich?
- Christian Yelich (MIL): Under 1.5 total bases (-161). Yelich’s been quiet lately, so this looks like a steal.
- Ranger Suarez (MIL): Under 4.5 strikeouts (-132). The Brewers’ starter has been a strikeout machine, but this line’s a bit high.
Why the Brewers Win:
They’ve got the better home record (85-54 vs. 80-58), and their pitching staff (3.69 ERA) is better than Philly’s (4.32). Plus, Freddy Peralta’s got a 3.10 ERA and 10 K/9. The Phillies? They’re relying on a rotation that’s been… questionable.
Why the Phillies Might Shock You:
They’re 13-5 in their last 18 games when scoring first. If they jump out to an early lead, the Brewers’ offense might panic. But let’s be real—it’s September, and the Phils are fighting for playoff positioning. Drama? Absolutely.
Final Prediction:
This is a high-scoring affair. The over (1.85) cashes in, and Harper and Yelich trade dingers. The Brewers win 6-4, but not before the Phillies make it interesting. And if you bet on Harper’s over total bases? You’ll need a bigger coffee mug to hold your winnings.
Bonus Prop Bet:
“Will the Brewers’ bullpen make the Phillies look like the 2023 version?” Over 8.5 innings, -120.
Final Score Prediction: Milwaukee 6, Philadelphia 4. But honestly, just enjoy the chaos.
