This is an 8* on OVER

We cashed the Under AND the Brewers yesterday in this matchup, but today we’re taking the Over. The first two games of this series saw the Brewers send out Corbin Burnes and Brandon Woodruff, their two top pitchers. Today they are forced to settle on Brett Anderson. Anderson’s ERA over his past three starts is 6.59. His WHIP is 1.61. He’s lost his last two starts. In 10 career starts vs. Cincinnati, Anderson is 4-3 with a 4.13 ERA. The Reds put up 5.0 runs/game when they are opposed by a left-handed starter. If they can score four runs off Burnes, they are certainly capable of doing the same or more vs. Anderson. The Brewers may have only scored four runs last night, but the three previous games saw them cross the plate a total of 23 times. They are 3-0 against Sonny Gray this season and that’s who they’ll be facing this afternoon. Milwaukee comes in averaging 5.1 runs/game when they are up against a right-handed starter. The Reds also have bullpen issues. Play on OVER
