Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Milwaukee Brewers The MLB pick for this game is the Milwaukee Brewers. Six of the Brewers’ previous eight games resulted in losses, while five of their nine home games ended in triumphs. They scored 16 runs in their past three home games, showing outstanding offensive performance. Expect them to play well offensively in this game since they hit the ball well against right-handers. In addition, Kelly’s pitching has struggled recently, especially on the road, where he has given up eight runs in his previous three outings. It will be challenging for him to control them this time because he let up four runs in his last two appearances against the Brewers. The Diamondbacks lost three of their final five games. Despite their slump, they performed offensively well, scoring 15 runs in their final three games. However, they will struggle to score in this game since Burnes pitched brilliantly for the Brewers, giving up just six runs in his past four outings at home. He hasn’t given up an earned run in three of his four career starts against the Diamondbacks, and he will continue to contain their attack. Milwaukee is the pick to cover the spread. It’s expected that the Milwaukee Brewers will triumph 5-3.
