Heading into Tuesday’s National League showdown between Milwaukee and Colorado, the over-under line is set at 11 runs. Look for today’s game to surpass this number, as Brandon Woodruff has given up multiple home runs in 3 of his past 5 starts. On the other side, I expect Milwaukee to pile on to Chad Kuhl’s recent struggles. I recommend taking the over.
