Today’s matchup is between the Milwaukee Brewers (29-31) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (43-17).
The Brewers are starting Brandon Woodruff (LHP), who is 3-5 on the season pitching a 3.05 ERA, 3.20 FIP, .260 wOBA, K% of 31.1%, BB% of 6.1%, 86.7 MPH average exit velocity, and a 0.99 WHIP in 73.2 innings pitched.
The Dodgers are starting Clayton Kershaw (LHP), who is 6-2 on the season with a 2.16 ERA, 3.31 FIP, .247 wOBA, K% of 28.1%, BB% of 3.6%, 87.5 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.02 WHIP in 58.1 innings pitched.
The Brewers are the 7th best in the Majors in Relieving Pitching, while the Dodgers are 2nd.
On the hitting side, the Brewers have a .302 wOBA and a .311 OBP. The Dodgers have a .344 wOBA and a .335 OBP. The Brewers have 75 HRs this season while the Dodgers have 118 HRs.
I like the Dodgers to take this game money-line. The Dodgers batting isn't quite as good against lefties as they are righties, but they should easily pull out the win here with Wainwright on the mound.
