Blue Jays vs. Brewers: Betting Preview and Predictions for the Final Game of the Series
The Toronto Blue Jays and the Milwaukee Brewers are set to face off in the final game of their 3-game series at American Family Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Brewers won the previous game 2-1, snapping a 6-game losing streak. The Blue Jays have lost 3 of their last 4 games and 9 of their last 12. The teams are tied 1-1 in the season series.
Left-hander Patrick Corbin will start for the Blue Jays, while right-hander Brandon Sproat will take the mound for the Brewers. Corbin has a 0-0 record with a 9.00 ERA, while Sproat has a 0-1 record with a 10.45 ERA. The Blue Jays are slight road underdogs in this matchup.
The Blue Jays are a solid play as underdogs behind Corbin, who is a veteran southpaw. Sproat has struggled with walks in his appearances, giving Toronto an opportunity to capitalize. Betting on the Blue Jays +1.5 is expensive, so it's better to bet on them straight up.
The Over 8.5 runs might be the best bet for this game. Both Corbin and Sproat have been generous in allowing runs, and the Over has cashed in recent games for both teams. Consider betting on the Over 4.5 runs in the first 5 innings as well, given the shaky performances of the starting pitchers.
The Blue Jays have been hitting well on the road, and the Over has been a profitable bet in their recent games. Milwaukee has also cashed the Over in their home games. For more sports betting picks and tips, visit SportsbookWire.com and BetFTW.
