May 27, 2025 | 8:40 p.m. ET | American Family Field

Milwaukee Brewers
Moneyline Pick - Milwaukee Brewers (-120): B

The Milwaukee Brewers enter this interleague matchup with a two-game winning streak, bolstered by a strong performance from their pitching staff. Their starter has been struggling this season, having yet to find his groove and form from last season. In contrast, the Boston Red Sox have dropped three consecutive games and are dealing with injuries to key players, affecting both their lineup and bullpen depth. Boston's starting pitcher has yet to be decided but their rested options are not great. Additionally, the Red Sox's offense has been inconsistent, partly due to the absence of some of their regular contributors.

Given the Brewers' current form and the Red Sox's challenges, backing Milwaukee at home seems like a solid play. The combination of strong pitching and a more stable lineup gives the Brewers an edge in this matchup. While the odds may not be overwhelmingly favorable, the risk-reward balance leans towards the home team, making this a reasonable bet for those looking to capitalize on current team dynamics.

Over/Under Pick - Under 8.5, (-110): B

The Boston Red Sox and Milwaukee Brewers, both hovering just below the .500 mark, are set to clash in a pivotal interleague matchup. Boston enters on a three-game skid, while Milwaukee rides a modest two-game upswing. The Red Sox's starting pitcher has delivered consecutive quality starts, supported by a bullpen that has allowed just one earned run over its last 11 innings. Conversely, the Brewers' starter has been struggling in his two starts this season, but has a good history against the Red Sox. Offensively, Boston's lineup has been hampered by injuries, contributing to a .240 batting average on the road. Milwaukee's lineup, though healthier, faces a challenge against Boston's starter, who has historically limited key Brewers hitters.

Given the strong recent performances of both bullpens and the offensive struggles of the Red Sox, this game is shaping up to be a low-scoring affair. While Milwaukee's bullpen has shown some vulnerabilities, the overall pitching matchup suggests that runs may be at a premium. Betting on the Under 8.5 runs at -110 offers solid value, earning a "B" confidence grade. It's a prudent play for those anticipating a tightly contested, playoff-style game where pitching takes center stage.

Spread Pick - Boston Red Sox, -1.5 (+162): B

The Boston Red Sox, currently on a three-game losing streak, face the Milwaukee Brewers, who are on a two-game winning streak. Boston's offense is bolstered by key contributors, while Milwaukee's bullpen has been under pressure, especially after consecutive extra-inning games. The Brewers are also managing without three of their top starters, which could impact their late-inning performance.

Considering the current form of both teams and the challenges facing Milwaukee's bullpen, backing Boston on the run line appears to be a prudent play. The Red Sox's momentum and offensive capabilities suggest they can capitalize on the Brewers' pitching vulnerabilities. While betting always carries risks, the present dynamics favor Boston to keep the game within a close margin or secure a win, making this a reasonable wager for those looking to leverage current team trajectories.
