The Cincinnati Reds (56-80) take on the Milwaukee Brewers (73-66) Saturday in the second game of a 3-game set at American Family Field. First pitch is set for 7:15 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Reds vs. Brewers odds with MLB picks and predictions.
Season series: Brewers lead 8-5
The Reds opened this series with a bang, disposing of The Brew Crew 8-2 Friday night. LHP Nick Lodolo went 8 strong IP with 11 K’s, and the Reds offense slugged 3 homers. Cincinnati is 6-4 over its last 10 games and is a respectable 10-10 over the last 20.
The Brewers feel like they’re on the part of the Cha-Cha song that asks: “How low can ya go?” They now trail the St. Louis Cardinals by 8 games in the NL Central and don’t look to have much of a counter punch. Milwaukee is 16-22 since July 31, and this collapse is sure to shake some things up in the offseason.
