Brewers vs Rangers Prediction

As good as the Brewers are, I’m not laying this price against a motivated Rangers team fighting for a playoff spot. Instead, I’m looking at the over. Rocker has been hittable with a 4.41 ERA and 1.40 WHIP, and he’s allowed 32 hits and 16 runs in his last 24 innings. May has allowed 14 hits and 10 runs in 15.1 innings since coming over from the Cardinals, and he’s been dealing with a shoulder issue. I see runs in this matchup. Give me the over on Sunday afternoon.
