Chris’ Pick

I’m sticking with the Brewers here. I get it, it’s not always easy to lay the run line with the Brewers, but Patrick Corbin more often than not, has regressed back to the Patrick Corbin that made us plenty of money by fading him early on this season. Brandon Woodruff remains one of the best options that the Brewers have in that rotation and sometimes it comes down to something as simple as backing the team with something to play for. Give me Milwaukee here.
