Brewers vs Pirates
“Buc-battered arms give Brew Crew an edge at the window.”

Brewers (24-25) VS Pirates (16-33)
May 22, 2025 | 6:40 PM ET | PNC Park, Pittsburgh

Milwaukee comes into this matchup trying to continue their turn around in for, having won three of their last five, but that pales in comparison to Pittsburgh’s up and down form this season, dropping five in a row before winning their last two games, which has seen their roster getting stretched thinner by some key injuries. The Brewers have a deeper group of relievers to back up their rotation, and their lineup has a track record of producing at PNC Park. On the mound, Milwaukee’s starter is a big question mark here, as they have yet to decide who that will be today.
Honestly, with Pittsburgh in a rut and missing several important arms, Milwaukee looks like the safer play. The Brewers’ pitching depth and balanced offense make them a solid choice on the moneyline, even if the value isn’t off the charts. Sometimes it just pays to side with the healthier, more complete team.

Milwaukee comes into this game having won three of its last four, but Pittsburgh’s slump, despite winning back to back games, and lineup issues set the stage for a pitching-focused matchup. The Brewers have solid starting options and a bullpen that’s been performing well lately, while the Pirates are still missing some key pieces and haven’t been able to get much going offensively. The trends for both teams and the recent performances on the mound suggest that runs could be hard to come by.
Honestly, this one looks like a classic low-scoring affair. With pitching depth on both sides and some cold bats in the mix, the under nine runs feels like the smart play for anyone eyeing this total. It’s not the flashiest pick, but it lines up with how these teams have been trending.

The Brewers have enjoyed success at PNC Park thanks to a balanced offense and consistent pitching, making them well-positioned for another strong outing. Even with a few key arms missing, Milwaukee’s rotation and relief corps have held steady, giving them the edge in this matchup.
Honestly, with the way things are trending, Milwaukee just looks like the team to back here. The Pirates’ current issues and the Brewers’ solid run make the run line a pretty safe bet, even if the extra cushion might not end up being necessary. Milwaukee’s in the driver’s seat, and this matchup lines up well for them to keep the good vibes rolling.
