Milwaukee Brewers vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction

I’ll stay with the Brewers. Montas hasn’t been too bad over his last three starts. He’s got six combined earned runs in 14.0 total innings during that time, going 1-0 in the win column. As for Fedde, he’s got 10 earned runs over his last three starts in 16.0 total frames. Fedde is 1-2 during that trio.

The Brewers are currently riding a five-game win streak. During that stretch they’ve scored five or more runs three times. Milwaukee held the Guardians to a combined four runs over three games this past weekend as well. I like the Brewers to keep it rolling Tuesday.
