Looks like everyone and their mother are on the Brew Crew tonight. I know Greinke is money at home BUT.....I don't think this 7-9 Brewers team(with a losing home record thus far) deserves to be a -230 favorite if Roger Clemens in his prime was on the mound. Considering a small fade the public play on Astros. Thoughts anyone?

While I agree that the Juice is high.. The stros suck. A play just to fade the public is kinda silly IMO.. looking at this game I'd say the play is Brewers or nothing. there are a few other oppertunities to make cash today in MLB no need to force a public fade play. Especially when in this situation Greinke and the Brewers win 7 of 10 easy.

You are exactly right. The Astros do suck. However, this Brewers team has only won one more game so far this year. So what does that make them? And the past four games for the Astros, they have scored 25 runs. Average of a little over 6 per game. And they did it against two teams at the top of their divisions. Not saying I'm going to make the play, but at +200, it's very tempting.

I think the Stros pitcher is not too shabby and the people taking -1.5 may be in trouble. Brewers could win by 8 but I think the Under is the better play.

Stat is a little misleading. It is right, they averaged "over 6 per game" the last 4 games. but they got 9 of those runs against Billingsly and 5 against Jackson, in route to scoring 11 and 12 in those two games.

Stat makes it sound like they've been beating up everyone that's been on the mound against them, when Kershaw and Lilly shut them down
