T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers.

I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the Chicago Cubs on opening day Thursday. The Brewers ended their regular season last year as the best team in their division but they fizzled out in the playoffs and I think they are going to be looking for a strong start to this year's season. They have already been starting to get hot lately with 2 wins in a row to end Spring training and I think they can start their year off with a win here. Corbin Burnes (0-0, 0.00 ERA) is making the start for this game and he had a great year last year. He finished the 2021 season 11-5 with a 2.43 ERA. I think he can make a deep start into this game and will keep the Cubs' batters at bay here. The Cubs are trying to forget about a terrible season last year where they finished 4th in their division and missed the playoffs altogether. They haven't looked bad in Spring training this year but I think the Brewers have a major pitching advantage here. Kyle Hendricks (0-0, 0.00 ERA) is the starting pitcher for the Cubs here and he didn't really have a great season last year. He finished the 2021 season 14-7 with a 4.77 ERA and I think he is going to hit a snag in his season debut here. I expect the Brewers to have a big day with their hitting and I like them to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 7-3 Brewers.
