Brewers vs. Cardinals Probable Pitchers
- Brewers: Shane Drohan (3-2, 3.12 ERA)
- Cardinals: Dustin May (5-6, 4.80 ERA)
Shane Drohan has strung a few good starts together (15 IP, 14 H, 3 ER, 15 K, 7 BB) against the Guardians and then twice against the Reds. This will be his first career start against the Cardinals, but he did allow one run on two hits in 3.1 innings against them in two relief appearances.
Dustin May looked like he found something with 15 shutout innings across two starts, including a one-hit shutout against the Padres. However, he’s allowed 11 ER on as many hits in just 2.2 innings across his last two starts.

Brewers vs. Cardinals Best MLB Prop Bets
Brewers Best MLB Prop Bet
- Garrett Mitchell OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+105)
Garrett Mitchell is one of those Brewers bats that you may not know that well, but he does some damage anyway. The outfielder is batting .264 with 37 runs scored and 42 RBI in 78 games so far this season.
Mitchell typically bats in the middle of the order, giving him plenty of opportunity to rack up some counting stats. He went OVER 1.5 HRR in six straight games prior to an 0 for 4 showing on Sunday.
Brewers vs. Cardinals Prediction and Pick
Neither starting pitcher has inspired much confidence recently, although Drohan has been a bit better for Milwaukee. Combine that with the Brewers simply being the better team, and I’m finding it hard not to back the Brew Crew tonight.
Milwaukee is strong on the road at 26-15 and 55-33 overall, while St. Louis is 23-21 at home and 47-40 overall.
I’ll back the better team as slight road favorites tonight in St. Louis.
Pick: Brewers -111
