MLB Monday

Check out Pittsburgh 11-7 with top ERA in baseball. I know most are not holding their breathes and these games are going under the radar. Tonight the Bucs make a trip to Milwaukee where the Brewers are 2-4 with 8-10 overall. Their less than impressive record is actually a reflection of a team coming out of a slow start. Milwaukee coming home after taking 2 out of 3 series beating Houston and Philadelphia going 5-4, but 4-1 in last 5. Brandon Looper taking the mound for Brew crew is starting out nicely in 17 innings, 3 starts 2-0 record with Brewers winning all three. Pittsburgh will counter with Jeff Karstens who has the least innings of all Pirates starters and might be considered the weak link, but he too is coming off a win. The big factor making the Brewers a big favorite is their 12 game straight win against Pittsburgh. Matter of fact Milwaukee has lost 1 game out of last 15 against the Bucs. That kind of stuff will stay in your mind, but the odds are stacked too high and Bucs are playing good ball. It's still April I'll take the value.
