Final Betting Pick

The Astros have a strong pitching staff, which is a key reason for picking them on the money line. Their team ERA of 3.40 is much better than the Brewers’ 4.23 ERA. Hayden Wesneski, the Astros’ starting pitcher, has a solid ERA of 3.86 and a low WHIP of 1.00, which can help keep the Brewers’ hitters in check.

The under 8.0 prediction is based on both teams’ offensive struggles. The Astros rank 20th in slugging percentage, while the Brewers are 21st. Both teams have similar home run totals, with 29 each, and neither has shown consistent power. This suggests a lower-scoring game, making the under a reasonable choice.
