Brewers vs Padres Prediction

Hell of a pitching matchup and you can talk yourself into the Padres and the plus money with King on the bump. However, the Brewers are playing better baseball this week and Misiorowski is dealing with a 2.45 ERA, 0.95 WHIP, and he leads baseball in strikeouts. Through 11.1 innings this month, Misiorowski has allowed just two hits and zero runs while striking out 19. The young pitcher looks like a superstar through just 22 career starts. It also doesn’t help that the Padres have never faced him, so a swing-and-miss pitcher gets even tougher. Give me the Brewers and the reasonable price.
