Final Brewers-Guardians Prediction & Pick
The Brewers have not named a starter for this game. This year, this game has been the spot for Jose Quintana in the rotation, but he has had his start bumped back to Thursday. Most likely, it will be Logan Henderson coming up from the minors to start in this game. He has made one major league start in his career, starting back on April 20th against the Athletics. Henderson went six innings in that game, giving up three hits, a walk, and a home run. He would take the win over the Athletics in that game.
Meanwhile, Gavin Williams has been solid for the Guardians this year. He has given up two or fewer earned runs in six of his eight starts. He is giving up a fair amount of hits, but is limiting damage well. Current Brewers do have some experience against Williams. They are 3-11 with two walks and an RBI. Brice Turang is 1-3 with a single and an RBI. Meanwhile, Jackson Chourio and Joey Ortiz have both hit triples off Williams. Logan Henderson was solid in his major league debut and has been solid in the minors since. He has a 1.69 ERA and a 0.63 WHIP in 16 innings since his last major league start. Still, the Guardians will score off him in this one, and Gavin Williams has been great at home this year. Take the Guardians here.
Final Brewers-Guardians Prediction & Pick: Guardians ML (-154)
