Braves vs Brewers Prediction
I’m on the Brewers here. I just think the Braves are starting to play out the string, and the Brewers keep finding ways to get the job done. Peralta didn’t look great in his last road start, but I do think he’ll be good enough here, and I look for the Brewers to pick up another W over Atlanta in this one. Give me Milwaukee.
