Milwaukee Brewers vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The Dodgers will continue to be favored because they’re the Dodgers, and while fading them this week hasn’t worked out as I said from the start of the season, despite all of their winning, they’ll be a loser this season. Well, the Dodgers still aren’t profitable this season despite being 25 games above a .500 record. The Brewers are one of the best teams in baseball, and getting them as an underdog has value regardless of opponent or venue. The Brewers are top five in terms of profit this season for MLB bettors. I’ll take the road dog in this spot.
