Diamondbacks vs Brewers Preview, Picks
The Arizona Diamondbacks open a three-game set with the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday. The Brewers just dropped two of three against the Giants, scoring only four total runs in their last two games after a 5–4 win to start that series. Arizona, meanwhile, comes in off a series win against the Reds, scoring 16 runs across the first two games before cooling off in a 6–1 loss.
Eduardo Rodríguez takes the mound for Arizona, looking to slow down Milwaukee’s bats. The Brewers counter with Brandon Woodruff, who’s been limited to 4 1/3 innings or fewer in each of his last two outings but has the stuff to miss bats and keep the game under control.
At the plate, all eyes are on Lourdes Gurriel Jr., who leads MLB with 29 RBIs in August and remains the biggest threat in Arizona’s lineup.
Still, the real betting value lies with the total. This matchup fits perfectly into Evan Abrams’ Silent Sharp Unders system—a profitable angle that pinpoints regular-season MLB games featuring strong teams, steady conditions, and closing totals in the common scoring range.
Despite both clubs entering with recent success, the market’s subtle lean toward the under signals a slower pace than expected.
With two capable starters and both offenses showing some inconsistency, the best play is to fade inflated scoring expectations.
