Big 4 days here facing the Cards while the Cubs likely will win 3 or 4 in Cincy.

Carlos Martinez has been awful lately and unless you're post dating this Luke Weaver has also been bad and has an ERA of 4.69

I am most worried about Mikolas, if they are patient the Crew should walk 6 times tonight. Martinez hasnt been throwing as hard and cant locate. Tonight has potential to be a big night offensively for the Brewers, of course things could change, Martinez is still a great pitcher but just for fun I predict a 8-4 win tonight

I feel like Martinez owns us everytime we face him. No clue if the stats actually back that up.

Martinez lifetime vs MKE: 1.95 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 105Ks in 97.0 IP, 6-4 in 25 starts.

There is some sort of sucker bet going on with the bookmakers. Against current Cardinals, Suter is OK: .752 OPS against.

C-Mart has been struggling since his return from the DL with a ton of walks. Velocity is a bit down but seems to be returning to his norm.

I get that the Brewers are at home, somewhat break the mold of models, and that Hader, etc. are all likely available tonight...but it's Brewers -135 right now. That's not right even knowing all of the reasons that the Cards/C-Mart should be faded a little bit.

They had said that they didn't expect him to miss much time. It's possible that he's available tonight and they preferred a different lineup.
