BREWERS VS INDIANS MLB PREDICTION
The Brewers’ righty Adrian Houser (8-6, 3.41 ERA) will take the mound on Friday looking to repeat his scintillating performance in his last outing. Houser has yet to face Cleveland in his career. Indians rookie right-hander Eli Morgan (2-6, 5.48) will start for the Indians in the series opener. The Brewers come into this series, winning 4 of the last 5 while the Indians have lost 3 of the last 4. The Indians have trouble putting runs on the board and facing Milwaukee’s pitching staff won’t make things any easier. This line opened with the Brewers listed -150 faves and despite the public pounding the obviously better team, the sharps have hit the Indians hard to drop the line as low as -137 at some books. The Indians have owned the Brewers in recent times winning 8 of the last 10 games and 2 of 3 games against the Brew Crew last season. The Brewers should be heavy favorites in this spot with Houser on the mound but this reverse line movement is enough to back the Indians.
