We’re backing a Milwaukee team tonight that, even though they have clinched the NL Central, still have a lot to play for as they try to become one of the two teams to receive a first-round bye. Peralta has been outstanding lately and the Brew Crew has won 8 of their last 11 games.

The Pirates are getting a chance to see some of their young talent and it shows in their record, going just 3-8 in their last 11. Ortiz has struggled at home lately and the Bucs have lost 3 of his last four home starts.

Perfect spot for the Brewers at a nice plus-money price.
