Milwaukee Brewers vs Chicago Cubs Prediction

I’m on the Brewers here. I was on the Brewers on Monday and Milwaukee fell short, but in the end I trust Milwaukee’s lineup a heck of a lot more than I trust the Cubs who are winning games, but there’s only so many teams you can beat only scoring three runs or less in the game. Milwaukee more often than not, is not one of those teams. I think the Brewers get back on track and get revenge here. Give me the Brewers.
