The Milwaukee Brewers will play the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 2 of their series at Tropicana Field on Wednesday afternoon.

The Milwaukee Brewers are 43-33 this season and have won three games in a row. Milwaukee won Game 1 of this series by a score of 5-3 on Tuesday night. The Milwaukee pitching staff has a 3.73 ERA, a 1.23 WHIP, and a .233 opponent batting average this season. The Brewers offense has scored 337 runs with a .235 batting average and a .313 on base percentage. Rowdy Tellez is batting .245 with 13 home runs and 45 RBI’s for the Brewers this season. The projected starter for Milwaukee is Eric Lauer, who is 6-3 with a 3.89 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP over 74 innings pitched this season.

The Tampa Bay Rays are 40-33 this season and have won three of their last four games. Prior to losing Game 1 of this series, Tampa Bay won all three games in their series against Pittsburgh. The Tampa Bay pitching staff has a 3.20 ERA, a 1.11 WHIP, and a .221 opponent batting average. The Rays offense has scored 295 runs with a .234 batting average and a .297 on base percentage this year. Randy Arozarena is batting .258 with seven home runs and 33 RBI’s for the Rays this season. The projected starter for Tampa Bay is Jalen Beeks, who is 1-1 with a 2.59 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP over 31.1 innings pitched this season.

Milwaukee is 5-1 in their last 6 road games and 8-3 in their last 11 games. The over is 5-2-1 in Milwaukee’s last 8 Wednesday games. Tampa Bay is 8-1 in their last 9 games against the NL Central and 8-2 in their last 10 Wednesday games. The over is 5-1 in Tampa Bay’s last 6 Wednesday games. The under is 6-1 in these two teams last 7 head to head meetings.

Both of these teams have played well recently, but Milwaukee has had the slightly better season. Milwaukee also won Game 1 of this series and is sitting in first place in the NL Central by a half of game. Tampa Bay will be going with a bullpen game in this matchup, while Milwaukee is starting Eric Lauer. Lauer has been roughed up in recent starts, so I am taking the Rays here.
