00:00We were just talking off air about the Brewers, and we were talking last segment about what
00:06do you expect the Brewers to do?
00:08They're not going to go out and get Scooble.
00:10And I think a big reason why is the guy that's on the mound tonight, I think this Logan Henderson
00:15is going to be fantastic here, Craig, and having Miz and then this guy, who's a big
00:22old, you know, lefty that the numbers are great, strikes out the world, doesn't walk
00:28a ton of guys, you know, he's only had nine starts this year, came off of injury.
00:35There's a lot of, and could you imagine Woodruff if he was still healthy?
00:38So I think the Brewers, you know, you win 69 games, you got two frontline starters.
00:45Jones is good for Pittsburgh too, by the way.
00:48He's been one of the bright spots for them, especially over the last couple of months.
00:52I don't think like we're getting a ton of runs in this game.
00:55The total is seven and a half.
00:57It feels like a pretty decent pitcher's battle, right?
01:01I mean, until you get to the bullpen.
01:03I think so.
01:04Also, there's another pitcher on Milwaukee.
01:05I think he's coming back at some point, but you may remember that, Joe, after the first
01:11two months of the season, the Cy Young Award leader was Christopher Sanchez.
01:17He was number one because he had that perfect month of May.
01:21And then the Miz was second.
01:23If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure Kyle Harrison on Milwaukee had the third shortest
01:29odds to win the Cy Young.
01:31And then he got hurt in June.
01:33We haven't seen him, but he's another one, Joe, that I think he's going to come back.
01:37And when he does, he's really good too.
01:40So the thing with the Brewers and betting an under with the Brewers is that you'd be a
01:48little scared if the Brewers, if you bet the under seven and a half and they're losing three,
01:53two in the fifth, because this team comes back a lot in the late innings.
01:57They scrape and bunt and find their way to come back.
02:00They don't hit home runs a lot.
02:02They have Contreras and a couple of other guys that do.
02:04But generally, it's all just kind of scrapping out runs.
02:08So that's the negative side.
02:09The positive side is that if you're watching that game and you bet under seven and a half
02:13and the Brewers are up four to one after five, that's it.
02:17You know, their bullpen is lights out.
02:19And it's not like striking everybody out either.
02:23It's just they know somehow they just know how to get outs.
02:27They have all these matchups that they that Murphy uses lefty righty, you know, constantly
02:32just very well run and managed team.
02:34So that's why we've said the Brewers to me, you know, one again, very best team at home
02:40in baseball, one of the best teams in baseball postseason.
02:44I don't know.
02:45I think we could be headed down the same road, unfortunately, for them again.
02:48But during the regular season, especially at home, impossible to be very tough.
02:53Yeah.
02:54Yeah.
02:54And and again, I'm a big Logan Henderson fan.
02:57Nine walks, 44 innings so far this year.
03:00And the kid is, you know, 10 plus per nine.
03:03He is striking out.
03:05And it's not like you got a very patient Pittsburgh team.
03:08So you just convinced me that the Pirates team total under is the way that I am looking
03:13here.
03:14Craig, I thank you very much for laying that on.
03:16And by the way, Joe, the other good thing, too, on the under is that the Pirates now.
03:21Look, I don't look.
03:22Their bullpen was suspect, but they added Camilo Duvall.
03:27They added Weaver, they added Lake Bakker, they they just basically it's like they took
03:31their house and just took all the furniture out and moved new furniture in.
03:35I mean, that's got to be a positive.
03:36I would think that the Pirates won't get blasted now in the seventh and the eighth.
03:40And I would think that that wouldn't happen.
03:43You know, sometimes it's just endemic.
03:44It just keeps happening.
03:45But I would think the Pirates bullpen is now better than what it was 24 hours ago.
03:50I mean, they added four players, I think, to that bullpen.
03:52So thank you.
03:52All right.
03:52mejor.
