Brewers vs Diamondbacks Prediction
I’ll take a shot on Arizona here. I get the case to be made for the Brewers at home, but the problem is I think Quintana is due to get hit at some point. This could happen here against a Diamondbacks team that has been steadily improving against left-handed pitching despite trading some pieces away at the deadline. The Brewers were playing with fire early on in this series, and I think that their focus might be on this marquee weekend series against Toronto. Give me Arizona in this one.
