Milwaukee Brewers vs Colorado Rockies Prediction

I’m on the over in this one. I don’t trust either starting option in this game as Dallas Keuchel has been past his prime for a couple of seasons now and just doesn’t have it anymore, which makes me wonder why the Brewers even went after him in the first place. On the other side, Ryan Feltner’s been batting practice all year long and especially in his last six starts, allowing 32 runs in over 31 innings of work. I think the over hits without extra innings in Tuesday’s matchup. Give me the over.
