Mariners vs. Brewers Prediction
I’m looking at the Brewers here. Sure, Seattle finally got one on the board on Saturday, but overall, the Brewers have been playing the better baseball to this point even if they have been winning a lot of close affairs. I simply trust the Brew Crew a lot more in a spot like this, and I’m just not in a position where I want to pass on them at this price, especially at home. Give me Milwaukee here.
