Brewers at Orioles prediction and picks
Prediction
Brewers 6, Orioles 3
Money line
This is not a terribly interesting betting game due to the pitching matchup. Figure on some positive regression for a Milwaukee offense that has registered a .253 BABIP overall and a .179 mark in high-leverage situations.
But the price here is not attractive: PASS.
