Milwaukee Brewers vs Cincinnati Reds Prediction

Game 1 Prediction: Game 1 has a chance to be a pitcher dual, as both Rea and Martinez have been sharp this season and are enjoying a strong month of August. Rea has allowed 11 runs in his last 26.2 innings, while Martinez has allowed 1 or less earned runs in 6 of his last 8 appearances. Early noon start as well. I'm rolling with the under in the first game. 

Game 2 Prediction: It would be nice to know who the Brewers are throwing out there for game 2, but it probably doesn't matter. I have a rule of not betting on pitchers making their big league debut due to the unknown. That's the case with the Reds and Rhett Lowder. While Lowder is considered a top-40 prospect in baseball, we have no big league sample size to go off. I'll side with the Brewers in the later game.

Randy’s Pick Game 1: Under / Game 2: Milwaukee Brewers
