(MLB) Milwaukee vs. Cincinnati, 05/09/2022 6:40 PM, Score: 5 - 10
Total: 7.50 | -120.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK on the UNDER Brewers/Reds.

Both teams have been playing to some higher-scoring affairs of late, but we're expecting that trend to end here on Monday in the opener of this three-game set.

The Brewers hand the ball to Brandon Woodruff (3-1, 5.18 ERA), while the Reds counter with Luis Castillo (0-0, 0.00), who makes his season debut after shoulder tightness to open the campaign.

He had no wins or losses and a tiny 0.87 ERA over three minor league outings, finishing with 16 strikeouts over 10 1/3's frames of work: "It (went) well from everything I heard," Cincinnati manager David Bell said of Castillo's final rehab start recently. "All the reports were excellent. It's going to be great to have him back."

He's 4-8 with a 3.23 ERA in 100 1/3's innings vs. the Brewers as well.

Woodruff is 5-3 with a 3.22 ERA in 12 career games against the Reds.

Both teams are dealing with injuries to key members, so look for the opener of this series to be dominated by these capable starting pitchers.

This number is high, the play is the UNDER.

Good luck, NP
