Milwaukee Brewers at Miami Marlins Prediction

In this matchup, I recommend taking the Brewers to pick up the win, as starter Eric Lauer is off to a tremendous start, with an FIP figure of just 2.85. Lauer doesn’t get a lot attention across the league. But dating back to last year, he has been one of the better pitchers in baseball. Look for the Brewers to come up with a win over Miami.
