Season series: Milwaukee leads 9-3

Milwaukee squeezed out a 5-4 win over Cincinnati Saturday while covering as a -127 road favorite. LF Jackson Chourio hit the tie-breaking solo shot in the top of the 9th as the Brewers extended their win streak to 5 games.

Reliever Justin Wilson took the loss, pitching only 1 inning, but allowing 1 ER, 2 H and 1 BB. The Reds have lost 3 straight with 2 of those losses coming by a single run.

Brewers at Reds projected starters

RHP Tobias Myers vs. TBD

Myers (6-5, 2.99 ERA) makes his 21st start. He has a 1.13 WHIP, 2.3 BB/9 and 7.8 K/9 through 108 1/3 innings.

  • Last start: No-decision, 5 IP, 3 ER, 3 H, 1 BB, 4 K in a 5-4 loss vs. San Francisco Tuesday

No Cincinnati pitcher announced at time of publishing but RHP Brandon Williamson is expected to come off the IL (shoulder) and make his 1st start of the season. He went 5-5 with a 4.46 ERA in 23 starts in 2023.

Brewers at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Brewers 7, Reds 4

Moneyline

BET BREWERS (-130).

Milwaukee is 7-3 in its last 10 overall while the Reds are only 2-8 in their last 10. The Brewers are also 5-1 in their last 6 on the road while Cincinnati is 1-5 in its last 6 at home.

Milwaukee has also won 3 straight against Cincinnati and is 4-0 in its last 4 meetings with the Reds in Cincinnati. The Brewers are a dominant 8-2 in their last 10 matchups vs. the Reds.

PASS.

I am not a fan of either line here as neither team has a real ATS advantage. Bet on the moneyline and/or total instead.

Over/Under

BET OVER 9.5 (-110).

The Over has hit in each of Cincinnati’s last 5 games and is 7-2-1 in its last 10. For Milwaukee, the Over is 5-1 in its last 6 road games and 6-3-1 in its last 10 overall. The Over has also hit in each of the last 3 Milwaukee-Cincinnati meetings and the Over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in Cincy and 6-4 in the last 10 meetings overall.

While the Brewers’ (-130) moneyline bet should not be overlooked, the Reds’ run line is a safer, and more profitable, play.

Cincinnati has scored 6 or more runs in 3 of its last 5 games while 3 of its last 4 losses have come by just 1 run. Its bats have been clicking over its recent home stretch and with Martinez on the mound, Cincinnati will be able to hang around.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Brewers at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Brewers 6, Reds 3

Moneyline

BET BREWERS (-126).

Milwaukee has historically been a tough team for Cincinnati, winning 10 of 13 games last season against a solid Reds roster. The Brewers have continued to dominate, scoring at least 7 runs in all 3 games. They have scored at least 6 in 5 of their last 6.

Milwaukee is 2-0 in games which Peralta has started as well. After winning 4 of their 1st 6, the Reds have lost 4 of their last 6 and have allowed at least 5 runs in both games that Martinez has started. Cincinnati is struggling, while Milwaukee is surging.

Back BREWERS (-126).

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

The spread for the red-hot Brewers does have some value, but at these odds, the moneyline is the better the play.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 8.5 (-122).

Both teams have hit the Over consistently this season. The Reds are 9-3 O/U and have gone Over in 4 of their last 5 games, scoring at least 5 runs in 3 of those and allowing at least 6 in 4.

The Brewers have gone Over in 4 straight and in 6 of their last 7, allowing at least 5 in 4 of their last 6. The Reds are 2-0 O/U in games Martinez has started, while the Brewers are 1-1 in games Peralta has started.

Considering those trends, back OVER 8.5 (-122).

Milwaukee Brewers at Cincinnati Reds odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Milwaukee Brewers at Cincinnati Reds odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Milwaukee Brewers (7-3) and Cincinnati Reds (6-5) meet for game 3 of a 4-game series Wednesday. First pitch from Great American Ball Park is set for 6:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Brewers vs. Reds odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Tied 1-1

Milwaukee picked up a 9-5 win Tuesday as a +118 road underdog to even the series. RHP Joe Ross was credited with the win, allowing 2 earned runs on 5 hits and a walk, while striking out 7 in 6 1/3 innings. LF Christian Yelich (2-for-4) and CF Black Perkins (3-for-5, 2 runs) knocked in 3 runs apiece, while RF Sal Frelick went 3-for-4 with 2 runs and an RBI.

The Brewers led 9-1 after 6½ innings before the Reds plated 2 in the 7th and 2 in the 8th to cut the defice to 9-5. But Milwaukee’s lead proved to be too much for the Reds to overcome late in the ball game.

Brewers at Reds projected starters

LHP Wade Miley vs. RHP Hunter Greene

This will be Miley’s 1st start of the season. The former Red went 9-4 with a 3.14 ERA in 23 starts for the Brewers in 2023. He had a 1.14 WHIP, 2.8 BB/9 and 5.9 K/9 across 120 1/3 IP.

  • 2023 road splits: 4-2, 2.65 ERA (54 1/3 IP, 16 ER), 40 H, 18 BB, 37 K in 11 starts
  • Career vs. Reds: 7-3, 2.86 ERA (78 2/3 IP, 25 ER), 67 H, 24 BB, 75 K across 13 starts and 1 relief appearance

Greene (0-0, 2.53 ERA) makes his 3rd start this season. He has a 1.22 WHIP, 4.2 BB/9 and 11.0 K/9 in 10 2/3 innings.

  • Last start: No-decision, 6 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 1 BB, 6 K in a 3-2 Reds loss vs. the New York Mets Friday
  • Career vs. Brewers: 0-3, 8.00 ERA (18 IP, 16 ER), 19 H, 10 BB, 27 K in 4 starts

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Brewers at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Brewers 6, Reds 4

Moneyline

BET BREWERS (+116).

Milwaukee has won 2 of its last 3 games vs. Cincinnati dating back to last season and is 6-3 in the last 9 vs. the Reds. They are also 7-2 in their last 9 visits to Cincinnati. Plus, they are 2-1 in its last 3 games overall and 4-1 on the road so far this season.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

I expect the Brewers +1.5 (-182) to cover here, but they are not worth the risk of betting on with the line being this heavy. Bet on the moneyline and/or the Over/Under.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 9 (-108).

The Over has hit in 3 consecutive games for the Brewers and is 5-1 in their last 6 overall. For the Reds, the Over has hit in back-to-back games and is 3-1 in their last 4.

This is only a lean because the Under is 7-3 in the last 10 Milwaukee-Cincinnati matchups.

Season series: First meeting; Brewers won 10-3 last season

The Reds lost to the New York Mets 3-1 at home Sunday, marking their 1st series loss this season. They lost 2 of 3 outright against the Mets and are 3-3 straight up at home. Cincinnati is 4-5 against the spread (ATS) this season.

Brewers at Reds projected starters

  • Run line (RL)/Against the spread (ATS): Brewers -1.5 (+150) | Reds +1.5 (-182)
  • Over/Under (O/U): 9 (O: -114 | U: -106)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Brewers at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Reds 6, Brewers 4

Moneyline

BET REDS (-108).

Given Ashby hasn’t pitched in over a year, it is difficult to trust him on the road against a Reds offense that has scored at least 6 runs in 4 of 9 games this season, with 3 of those 4 times coming at Great American.

While Ashcraft wasn’t stellar in his lone start, the bullpen is what let Cincinnati down. The Reds have been better also of late, allowing 3 or fewer runs in 3 of their last 4 games.

The Reds should have the pitching advantage, and that will matter, as both offenses have been strong to start the season. Take REDS (-108).

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

There isn’t any value on the spread. The Reds are too expensive as run-line underdogs, while the Brewers don’t have much value as plus-money run-line favorites.

Regardless of who one likes, play the moneyline here.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 9 (-114).

Both teams have dynamic offenses and don’t have their aces on the mound. The Brewers have scored at least 6 in 2 of their last 3 and have gone Over in 3 of their last 4. Milwaukee is 4-4 O/U on the season.

The Reds are 6-3 O/U and are 4-2 O/U at home. They have scored at least 6 runs in 4 of 6 home games while allowing at least 5 in 3 of those 6. Expect a high-scoring game, and take OVER 9 (-114).

Brewers at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Brewers 7, Reds 2

Moneyline

BET BREWERS (+110).

The Brewers are 7-3 in the last 10 meetings overall and 4-1 in the last 5 game againstbthe Reds. They are also the hotter team winning 5 of their last 6  while the Reds have lost4 of the last 5. Milwaukee is also 3-0 in Houser’s last 3 starts vs. Cincinnati while Lively has yet to beat Milwaukee in his career.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

The Brewers should cover here at +1.5 (-165) as I expect them to come away with the win, but the line is simply not worth the juice especially when each of the other 2 plays are safer. Bet on the moneyline and/or O/U instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 10.5 (-105).

The Under is 3-0 in the last 3 matchups and 7-3 in the last 10 meetings. The Under is also 4-0-1 in Houser’s last 5 starts overall and 3-0 in his last 3 starts vs. Cincinnati. The Under is 2-0 in each of Lively’s 2 career starts vs. Milwaukee as well.

Brewers 5, Reds 3

Moneyline

The Brewers have won 5 of their last 7 games and have now gotten their road record over .500 (16-15) with their 3 wins over the Reds in this series.

Teheran has been fantastic so far in 2 starts since signing while Abbott is an unknown, making his MLB debut.

Cincinnati has lost 8 of their last 10 games at home and has lost 8 of their last 10 games against the Brewers.

BET BREWERS (+105).

Run line/Against the spread

The Reds are 34-25 ATS overall this season, but only 6-7 ATS when favored. They have lost the last 4 games outright in which they were favored on the run line.

The Brewers are 28-31 ATS overall and 16-13 ATS as the underdog. They have won 6 of their last 10 games outright in which they were the underdog on the run line.

But the moneyline is a better bet than the Brewers on the run line.

PASS.

Over/Under

Both of Teheran’s starts this season have had totals of 5 and 6 runs while only 2 of the Brewers’ last 10 games have had totals of 10 or more runs. Also, the Under is 6-2 in the last 8 meetings between the 2 teams in Cincinnati.

BET UNDER 9.5 (-115).

Brewers at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Reds 6, Brewers 5

Moneyline

BET REDS (-105).

The Brewers have had a consistency problem this season. They have traded off winning and losing over their last 6 games, suggesting they’re primed to come up short. Milwaukee is just 14-15 on the road and just 4-6 as a road favorite.

The Reds have cooled down over their last 2, but they are 7-4 over their last 11 games. They have played far better over the last few weeks, and at home following an extra-innings loss, Cincinnati is a good play here.

Take REDS (-105).

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

Trends point to the Reds being the better play here, but I would ultimately pass as +1.5 (-165) is too expensive. The Brewers don’t pose enough value given how they have played on the road this season as well.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 10 (-120).

Neither team has an ace on the mound here. The Reds have gone Over in 5 of their last 7 games and are 16-13 O/U at home this season.

The Brewers have been better on the Under this season, but Rea has struggled in several of his starts. He has given up at least 4 earned runs in 2 of his last 3 starts.

Back the OVER 10 (-120) for a small unit.

Season series: First meeting; Milwaukee took 13 of 19 meetings in 2022

The Brewers lost 3-1 Thursday at the Toronto Blue Jays and have dropped 5 of their last 7 games. Milwaukee is just 13-15 on the road this season and has lost 6 of its last 10 games but is still 1st in the NL Central, 1/2 game ahead of the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Reds had a 5-game win streak snapped in an 8-2 loss at the Boston Red Sox Thursday. Cincinnati is 7-3 over its last 10 games and is 14-14 at home, trailing Milwaukee by just 3 games in the NL Central.

Brewers at Reds projected starters

RHP Corbin Burnes vs. LHP Brandon Williamson

Burnes (4-4, 3.68 ERA) makes his 12th start. He has a 1.19 WHIP, 3.4 BB/9 and 8.3 K/9 through 63 2/3 IP.

Brewers at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Brewers 5, Reds 4

Moneyline

PASS.

The Brewers (-175) have a strong starting pitcher in Burnes, but they have struggled as of late.

Milwaukee is too expensive to play outright, but Cincinnati’s run line with insurance is priced appropriately and is the safer play Friday.

Run line/Against the spread

BET REDS +1.5 (-110).

The Reds have been a strong play on the run line this season. Cincinnati is 5th in baseball at 33-23 ATS, is 21-17 ATS as an underdog and is 11-9 ATS as a home underdog.

Milwaukee is just 11-17 on the run line as a favorite. The signs point to Cincinnati being the better side here.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 10 (-115).

The Reds have been a good Over play this season, but Burnes will pose quite the challenge. The Brewers are just 24-30-2 O/U this season. They have gone Under in 6 of their last 9 contests and pushed the total in one of the 3 that didn’t go Under.

The Brewers only scored 7 in their 3-game series against the Blue Jays to start the week, so their bats aren’t hot right now. Couple Burnes and a weak Milwaukee attack, and take the UNDER 10 (-115).
