Reds at Brewers 7/22/19 - MLB Picks & Predictions

On Monday, the Cincinnati Reds open a three-game series on the road against National League Central rival the Milwaukee Brewers. The Reds snapped a four-game losing streak on Saturday with a 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Yasiel Puig hit an RBI double that tied the score and Josh VanMeter hit the first home run of his major league career to put the Reds ahead for good.

Christian Yelich leads Milwaukee with a .337 batting average, in home runs with 35, RBIs with 76 and in hits with 115. Milwaukee is averaging .248 at the plate, while opposing hitters are averaging .254. On Monday, the Brewers will send Chase Anderson to the mound. The right-hander is 5-2 with an ERA of 3.96, 75 Ks and 26 BBs.

Take the UNDER in this matchup. The UNDER has cashed in 3 of Anderson’s last 5 starts versus Cincinnati and in 12 of the last 17 overall between the two NL Central rivals. Milwaukee has seen the UNDER cash in 15 of its last 21 played on Monday, in each of Anderson’s last 4 starts on Monday and in 7 of the Brewers last 11 games at home. Christian Yelich is doubtful and will aid in the scoring being lower. Final Score Prediction, Milwaukee Brewers win, but our best play is UNDER 4-3.
