MIT Simulator - MLB Saturday Brewers vs Cubs Winner
MIT Simulator Score - Milwaukee 4.81, Chicago 3.75 - Projected Margin: 1.06 - Current Money Line: +135 - MIT Simulator shows Edge Factor of 1 run on a game with a sizable dog on the money line. Key factors noted: Brewers finally snapped their scoreless skid with a big 5th inning last night versus the Cubs. Regardless of the final outcome Friday night, the fact that Milwaukee is finally scoring some runs again will do wonders for their confidence at the plate in Saturday's game. The Brewers are facing Yu Darvish whom struggled with command of his fastball versus the Marlins in his season debut. Miami is struggling early this season so that is not a good sign for Darvish and he also struggled against Milwaukee last season. The Brewers will send Zach Davies to the mound and, though he also struggled in his first start he did strike out 6 against 0 walks. He also has had great success against the Cubs in recent starts. Davies last 3 starts versus the Cubs (July to September last year) saw him go 7 innings in each outing and all 3 were quality starts. He compiled a 2.57 ERA in those 3 starts. This one looks like an upset! Simulation forecasting a margin of 1.06 runs in favor of underdog Milwaukee per MIT Simulator. Play: BREWERS
