Brewers vs Angels Prediction
I’m on the Brewers in this one. I just don’t see Caden Dana as the type of pitcher to be able to match zeroes with the Brewers and Freddy Peralta in this matchup. Furthermore, I think it’s going to be a lot easier for the Brewers to break through and get the job done in this series, especially in the opener against Dana. He has had a history of struggling in the starters’ role. I’ll roll with Milwaukee here.
