Stephen Nover MLB Free Wednesday Play
(MLB) Houston vs. Milwaukee,
Money Line: -103.00 Houston (Away)
Result: Loss
The Brewers snapped the Astros' eight-game win streak with a 6-0 victory on Tuesday. So, now, we have a pick type game in a pitching matchup of Brandon Bielak versus Milwaukee's Adrian Houser.

Give me the Astros against the Brewers any time when the price is in this range.

Houser was underrated a couple of seasons ago when he went 10-6 with a 3.22 ERA. But he hasn't matched that the last couple of years. The Brewers' bullpen is below average after entering yesterday's game with a 5.57 ERA and 5.61 WHIP during the last couple of weeks.

The Brewers haven't been scoring much either, averaging 2.6 runs during their last eight games. Bielak has a 2.89 ERA. He's coming off a 5-1 victory against the A's five days ago where he struck out nine in five innings.

Yes, Bielak was pitching against the A's. But the Brewers have had the highest strikeout rate at 28.5 percent during the last two weeks. Bielak is backed by an excellent and deep Houston bullpen that has the fourth-lowest ERA in the league.

(Editor's note: Stephen Nover is 9-3 on his last 12 premium/free baseball totals and has his National League Total of the Month going today.)
