Braves vs. Brewers MLB BETTING PREDICTION
I’m going to roll the dice tonight on the host Brewers. The Braves needed a barrage of home runs – two by the aforementioned Olson – just to rally against a struggling Diamondbacks team on Thursday afternoon and avoid a sweep. That win snapped a four-game skid for Atlanta, which is coming off a lackluster home stand. Meanwhile, Yelich is red-hot for a Milwaukee squad that is a season-high 11 games above .500. Freddy Peralta is 3-1 with a 3.09 ERA in five career games – four starts – against the Braves, which includes a 1-0 win in his only start against Atlanta last season. The Brewers eventually turn the game over to their relievers, they will be doing so with a bullpen that has tossed 20 2/3 consecutive scoreless innings over their past seven games.
