The San Diego Padres (30-18) and Milwaukee Brewers (24-23) play the second of a four-game set Tuesday at American Family Field with a 7:40 p.m. ET first pitch. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Padres vs. Brewers odds with MLB picks and predictions.
RHP Joe Musgrove is the projected starting pitcher for the Padres. He is 4-4 with a 2.47 ERA, 0.86 WHIP, 12.4 K/9 and 1.9 BB/9 over 51 IP through 9 starts.
Musgrove allowed just two hits with no walks and 11 strikeouts across seven scoreless innings in a 3-0 victory against the Colorado Rockies. He also faced the Brewers back on April 19 in San Diego, allowing just two solo home runs, four hits and a walk with a season-best 13 strikeouts in seven innings in a 3-1 loss.
RHP Corbin Burnes is the projected starting pitcher for the Brewers. He is 2-3 with a 1.79 ERA, 0.62 WHIP, 15.0 K/9 and 0.5 BB/9 over 40 1/3 IP through 7 starts.
Burnes has nearly been untouchable this season, but offensive support has been a problem. The Brewers are just 2-5 in his seven starts this season, averaging only 1.33 runs per game across the past three outings, and 18 runs total this season.

Money line (ML)
The BREWERS (-115) are looking for another win in this series after a well-pitched 5-3 victory in the series opener Monday. Burnes hasn’t yielded much this season, so they’re the play, but beware of a lack of offense for Milwaukee.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)
The Brewers +1.5 (-200) would cost you two times your potential return, and there is just no sense taking that risk. Just play them straight up.
AVOID.
Over/Under (O/U)
The UNDER 7 (-110) is 4-2-1 in seven starts for Milwaukee with Burnes on the bump, including his start April 20 in San Diego. The Over-Under has alternated in each of the past six outings by Musgrove.
