T.M. Selection: Milwaukee Brewers.

I like the Milwaukee Brewers to win this game against the Boston Red Sox on Friday. The Brewers have looked really good lately winning 2 games in a row now but they have also won 5/6 of their previous 6 games. Their offense has been putting up a ton of runs in these games too, putting 17 runs in their 2 most recent games and that has been a common theme for them since coming out of the All Star break. I expect them to continue on their run here and their hot offense should lay a beating on this Red Sox pitching staff that has been taxed so much in their games lately. The Red Sox haven't looked good lately either winning just 2/9 of their previous 9 games and I think this is another game they are going to lose in their slump here. Brandon Woodruff (8-3, 3.73 ERA) is up for the Brewers here and he has been great lately, only giving up more than 2 runs once in his previous 8 starts. He has looked great in his starts and I expect him to have another great start here with the Red Sox struggling so much lately. Brayan Bello (0-2, 10.50 ERA) is up for the Red Sox here and he has only made 3 starts in his rookie year here but he has looked terrible in all of those starts. He has pitched 4 innings in all 3 starts and has given up 5 runs in 2 of those, 4 runs in the other start. He doesn't strikeout many batters either and he has actually been giving up more and more hits in every start he has made. The Brewers lineup is on fire right now with the runs they are putting up lately and I expect them to do the same here with all the pitching issues these Red Sox have. I like the Brewers to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 9-4 Brewers.
