Rockies vs Brewers Prediction
It will be interesting to see how Misiorowski handles Coors for the first time. Regardless, I’m backing the Brewers and the young stud. Misiorowski has a 1.65 ERA and 0.79 WHIP on the season. In his last 38.1 innings, Misiorowski has allowed 14 hits and 1 run while walking 6 and striking out 57. In 28.2 innings, Misiorowski has a 1.26 ERA and a .124 batting average allowed. It’s Cy Young, stuff folks. The only option here is the Brewers, and of course I’ll lay the RL to shave down the price.
