Colorado Rockies at Milwaukee Brewers odds, picks and predictions

the Colorado Rockies (43-50) open up the 2nd half against the Milwaukee Brewers (50-43) Friday in the 1st of a 4-game set at American Family Field. First pitch is set for 8:10 pm ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the rockies vs Brewers odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: First meeting of 2022. Brewers went 5-2 against the Rockies last year.

When you look at these two teams’ last 10 games, you might think you’re becoming dyslexic. Colorado is 7-3, and Milwaukee is 3-7. The Rockies struggled away from home though, as they’re just 15-27 away from Coors. Colorado is also likely to start flipping assets before the trade deadline like All-Star 1B CJ Cron.

Milwaukee has great starting pitching, but its bullpen has been susceptible of late. Closer Josh Hader is going through the worst stretch of his career as he allowed 9 ER in his last 2 appearances and 12 ER in 5 1/3 innings for a 20.26 ERA in July. The Brew Crew is 12th with 4.57 runs per game, which isn’t enough to mask some of its deficiencies.

Rockies at Brewers picks and predictions

prediction

Brewers 4, Rockies 2

Moneyline

The Brewers have a massive advantage on the bump. Can they score enough to cash a first 5 innings bet, though? Senzatela is a 5-inning, 2-ER kind of pitcher, and Burnes has been money. We’re not touching the -280 ML, but I will consider BREWERS FIRST 5 INNINGS (-155) for a HALF UNIT.

Run line/Against the spread

The Brewers aren’t winning enough, or by a good enough margin to consider on the RL. I don’t trust the Rockies bats on the road, either. PASSPORT.

Over/Under

Milwaukee went Under in 7 of the last 10. The Under hit in Burnes’ last 2 starts. You can’t read much into Colorado’s last 10 because they were at Coors Field and Chase Field, which are hitters’ havens. With the Brewers struggling offensively, and no one putting much wood onto Burnes’ offerings, let’s LEAN UNDER 7.5 (-120).
