Prop Bets: Washington Nationals VS Milwaukee Brewers 2025-07-13
Brewers vs. Nationals: A Tale of Two Teams (and One Very Confused Fanbase)
The Milwaukee Brewers (-234) are about to take on the Washington Nationals (+191) in what promises to be a game where the underdogs might as well just pack up and go home. Let’s break it down with the precision of a radar gun and the humor of a blooper reel.
The Numbers That Make You Go "Hmm..."
- The Brewers are hitting .470 (8th in MLB) and pitching like they’ve got a 3.68 ERA (solid, but not "I’ll-marry-you-in-a-cathedral" solid).
- The Nationals? They’re scoring runs like it’s a penalty shoot-out and losing games like it’s their job. (16th in runs scored, 28th in ERA. No, really.)
Pitcher Props: Freddy vs. Jake
- Freddy Peralta (Brewers) is favored to strike out 6.5 batters (+108). If he hits that mark, he’ll be one step closer to "Pitcher of the Year" and two steps away from needing a new arm.
- Jake Irvin (Nationals) is projected for 3.5 strikeouts (-136). Let’s just say… good luck, Jake. The odds are stacked like a Jenga tower in a hurricane.
Hitter Props: Christian Yelich, Eat Your Heart Out
- Christian Yelich (-260) is a -260 favorite to hit 0.5 home runs. Translation: He’s so likely to go deep, the Nationals might as well build a moat around their stadium.
- James Wood (+320) has a prop on total bases (3.5). If he hits that, it’ll be the baseball equivalent of a "miracle on ice."
The Spread: A 1.5-Run Handicap?
The Brewers are -1.5 run favorites. The Nationals are +1.5. In baseball terms, this is like giving a toddler a 10-pound weight vest and telling them to outrun Usain Bolt.
The Total: 8.5 Runs?
The over/under is 8.5 runs. Given the Nationals’ offense, "over" might as well mean "hope for a divine intervention."
Final Prediction
The Brewers will win 5-2, with Yelich launching a solo shot that makes the Nationals’ dugout collectively whisper, “Why did we fly here?” Freddy Peralta will strike out 6, and James Wood will have 2 total bases—probably on a single and a stolen base (if he’s lucky).
To the Nationals fans: Reconsider your life choices. Maybe start a GoFundMe for a better team.
