Milwaukee Brewers vs. St. Louis Cardinals Prediction
I’m on the Brewers in both games. I think Misiorowski will give the Brewers a huge starting pitching edge over whoever gets the nod for game one, and in game two even with no starter announced I still think that the Brewers are just heads and shoulders the better team in that matchup and are playing the far better baseball right now and I think a doubleheader sweep is quite likely here. Give me the Brewers.
