In this Milwaukee Brewers vs Miami Marlins Prediction, the Brewers are coming as -150 road favorites. The Brewers are rightfully favored, as they have a better overall record, and they have more road wins than the Marlins have at home. The Brewers have the pitching advantage, as Patrick looks far better than Quantrill and coming off a shutout start. Milwaukee also has a better bullpen, and a better offense, so I like them to take care of business on the road today.
