Cincinnati Reds vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction

Nick Martinez has been solid this season, and he's been at his best on the road. The problem is the Milwaukee Brewers are having a hell of a week as they continue to create distance in the Central and their offense is as shot as it's been all season. The Brewers have scored a combined 32 !!! runs in their last 3 games. I'm not stepping in front of the Brewers with the way the offense looks this week. The Brewers are scorching right now. Give me the Brewers and the cheap price at home in game 2 against the Reds.
