Milwaukee Brewers vs. Colorado Rockies Prediction: Will the Bats Get to Dallas Keuchel, Ryan Feltner?
Last night, we saw offensive fireworks in the first game of the series between the Brewers and Rockies. The over cashed with ease, and the Rockies stole the first game of the series. How will the second game of this series play out with two struggling starting pitchers on the mound?

Milwaukee Brewers vs. Colorado Rockies Prediction
Dallas Keuchel was recently traded to Milwaukee. He looked good in his first start for the Brewers until the later innings where he gave up two home runs. Keuchel has struggled with the long ball in recent years, and pitching at Coors Field is probably the worst situation he could possibly be in as he continues to try and earn a spot in the starting rotation. I’m not expecting Keuchel to shine in the hitter-friendly environment he will be pitching in on Tuesday.
Luckily for the Brewers, they will be facing a struggling starter in the second game of this series as well. Ryan Feltner’s ERA is hovering just below a 6.00 for the season. He’s given up at least four runs in each of his last six starts. The 27-year-old right-hander just can’t seem to get enough swings and misses. Coming off a loss, I’m fully expecting the Brewers to rebound on Tuesday. Expect their offense to shine once again at Coors Field.
The total in this game has been on the rise since it opened at 11. It’s now sitting at 11.5 most places. Lock this in before the total gets any higher. Keuchel and Feltner’s recent struggles won’t be getting any better as these offenses continue to shine. Both team’s bullpens have struggled mightily of late, which is expected of the Rockies but the Brewers are clearly missing their star closer.
Fade both of these starting pitchers and bullpens and back the over on the total in Colorado. We saw plenty of runs in the first game of this series yesterday, and I’m expecting much of the same with two worst starters on the bump. There’s a reason Dallas Keuchel’s ERA has been this high for the last three seasons…
