Milwaukee Brewers vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

I’ll take a stab on the Brewers, but it’s a coin flip. Montas is 1-2 in his last three starts. In the losses he’s got 11.2 innings and six earned; in the win Montas put up 6.0 clean frames versus the Giants. As for Montgomery, he’s given up seven earned runs in 10.2 innings over his last three outings, but does have a three-inning save in the books.

On Saturday the Brewers couldn’t solve Arizona’s bullpen. That group logged 4.0 innings, no hits, no walks and seven strikeouts. Milwaukee simply has to be better at the plate to prevent the sweep Sunday.
