The model, which simulated every game on Friday’s schedule 10,000 times, likes the Brewers to win outright (-185) over the Nationals on Friday night (see tickets at StubHub). The Nationals simply aren’t the same caliber of team as the Brewers. That doesn’t always matter in baseball, but there are a number of factors at play here.
Washington has lost seven of its last 10 games, and now the Nationals will have to contend with Brewers starter Eric Lauer. Lauer is having a fine start to his campaign. He sports a 2.60 ERA and has struck out more than a third of the batters he’s faced. Moreover, the Brewer offense has scored the sixth-most runs in baseball thus far. Yelich is one again hitting for power, and Luis Urias has turned himself into a dynamic pure hitter.
Washington is likely going to be selling at the trade deadline, Baltimore Ravens Jersey and tonight’s game will probably be another step in that direction. The Brewers win well over 70 percent of the time in SportsLine’s simulations, making them the clear value for MLB bets.
