Milwaukee Brewers vs LA Angels Prediction
I’m on the over here. I think the Brewers will get to Tyler Anderson as Anderson for me is normally a pitcher that will produce a high-four or low-five ERA at season’s end, and numbers like the ones he is producing right now are just unsustainable. On the other hand, Freddy Peralta continues to have issues with stringing consistent results together and he seems to have issues on the road more often than not. I think this one ends up being high-scoring, so give me the over here.
