Friday MLB Pick

The 5-8 Pittsburgh Pirates were throttled yesterday by the San Diego Padres, 8-3, at home and tonight they will travel to Milwaukee to take on the 7-5 Brewers. The Brewers were off yesterday after putting the screws to the Cubs on Wednesday, 7-0, so they will be rested and have been on a roll, winning 4 of their last 5. The Brewers are expected to send Adrian Houser to the hill and he has been delivering. Houser is 1-1, with an ERA of only 1.80 and a 1.60 WHIP. The Bucs are expected to counter with J.T. Brubaker, who has also been on his mark. Brubaker is 1-0 with a 1.93 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP, but Pittsburgh is 0-4 in his last 4 turns against teams with a winning record and are just 1-5 on the road this season. The side to consider here is Milwaukee.
TONIGHT’S PICK: MILWAUKEE BREWERS
