Brewers vs. Dodgers Preview and Predictions
by Gracenote on 07/31/2018
After scoring a total of three runs in their last two games, the Los Angeles Dodgers look to jump-start their offense Tuesday when they continue their four-game series against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers. The Dodgers have lost two straight following a three-game winning streak while the Brewers have won six of their last eight to pull within one game of the first-place Chicago Cubs in the National League Central.
Eric Thames belted a three-run homer and Christian Yelich extended his hitting streak to 14 games in Monday's 5-2 victory as Milwaukee improved to 4-1 on its eight-game road trip. Yelich, the reigning NL Player of the Week, has hit safely in 19 of his last 20 games and is 29-for-59 with four homers and 15 RBIs during his hitting streak. The Dodgers have recorded a combined seven hits in their past two games and could use a spark from All-Star outfielder Matt Kemp, who is hitless in his last 18 at-bats. Infielder Manny Machado homered and walked twice on Monday in his Dodger Stadium debut to extend his on-base streak to a career-high 30 games.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Brewers LH Wade Miley (1-1, 2.01 ERA) vs. Dodgers RH Walker Buehler (4-3, 3.92)
Miley turned in a solid outing last Thursday against San Francisco but received a no-decision after allowing two runs on six hits over five innings. The 31-year-old native of Louisiana has walked 13 batters in his first five starts across 22 1/3 innings after missing much of the season due to groin and oblique injuries. Miley is 3-5 with a 3.86 ERA in 14 career starts (13 games) against the Dodgers, including 3-0 with a 2.41 ERA in six career starts at Dodger Stadium.
Buehler is looking to bounce back from a shaky outing last Wednesday, when he gave up five runs over 4 2/3 innings in a 7-3 loss to Philadelphia. The 24-year-old rookie has shuttled between the Dodgers and the minors this season but appears likely to stay in the rotation moving forward. "Things can change, but the thing is, with Walker, we're very synced up with understanding we need him through the season and into October," manager Dave Roberts told reporters. "He's a special player."
WALK-OFFS
1. The Brewers lead the majors with a record of 44-21 in night games this season.
2. The Dodgers placed Ross Stripling on the 10-day disabled list with right big toe inflammation and recalled fellow RHP Dylan Floro from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
3. Milwaukee 3B Mike Moustakas is 2-for-13 with no extra-base hits in his first three games since being acquired from Kansas City.
PREDICTION: Dodgers 6, Brewers 3

Astros vs. Mariners Preview and Predictions
by Gracenote on 07/31/2018
The Houston Astros are in a major tailspin and the host Seattle Mariners look to gain more ground on the American League West leaders when they meet on Tuesday for the middle contest of their three-game set. Seattle allowed just four singles in Monday's series-opening 2-0 victory to pull within three games of Houston, which has dropped a season-high five straight contests.
The Astros have been outscored 27-10 during their slide and the last four setbacks have come without All-Star second baseman Jose Altuve (knee), who currently is on the disabled list. Marwin Gonzalez is in a funk, going hitless in 12 at-bats during the Astros' skid. Seattle slugger Nelson Cruz delivered a two-run double on Monday and is 6-for-16 with three homers and six RBIs over his last four games. Edwin Diaz, the major-league leader in saves, worked a flawless ninth inning for the Mariners to become the fourth player in franchise history to register a 40-save season.
TV: 10:10 p.m. ET, MLB Network, AT&T SportsNet-Southwest (Houston), ROOT Northwest (Seattle)
PITCHING MATCHUP: Astros RH Charlie Morton (11-2, 2.89 ERA) vs. Mariners RH Mike Leake (8-6, 4.15)
Morton is 1-1 with a 4.37 ERA in four starts this month after winning 10 of his first 11 decisions. The 34-year-old has registered 10 or more strikeouts on six occasions and his total of 151 is just 12 shy of the career high he set last season. Morton defeated Seattle on April 19, when he gave up three hits over seven scoreless innings, and is 2-2 with a 2.93 ERA in five career meetings.
Leake is winless over his last five starts, going 0-2 with a 4.28 ERA during the drought. The 30-year-old has been up-and-down at pitcher-friendly Safeco Field, compiling a 3-4 record and 4.30 ERA in 11 turns. Leake gave up five runs and seven hits over six innings in a loss on April 18 as he fell to 6-5 with a 3.65 ERA in 13 career appearances (11 starts) against the Astros.
WALK-OFFS
1. The Astros acquired RHP Roberto Osuna, who currently serving a 75-game suspension for domestic violence, from Toronto for RHPs Ken Giles, David Paulino and Hector Perez.
2. Seattle acquired LHP Zach Duke and cash from Minnesota for RHP Chase De Jong and INF Ryan Costello), obtained RHP Adam Warren from the New York Yankees for $1.25 million in international slot money, placed 3B Kyle Seager on the paternity list, optioned 1B Daniel Vogelbach to Triple-A Tacoma, recalled INF Zach Vincej from the same affiliate, designated INF Gordon Beckham for assignment and activated LHP James Paxton (back) - who pitched seven scoreless innings on Monday - from the DL.
3. Houston SS Carlos Correa (back) is expected to begin a minor-league rehab assignment later this week.
PREDICTION: Astros 4, Mariners 3
