Milwaukee Brewers vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
I’m on the Brewers here. I get that it’s hard to envision the Dodgers continuing to struggle as they have been, but right now, the Dodgers are just in a funk, and Freddy Peralta has looked strong in a lot of his recent outings. The Dodgers did see Peralta not long ago, but I think that Peralta has another solid showing here, and the Brewers keep the momentum going. Give me Milwaukee here.
