Dodgers vs Brewers Model Projection

Score Projection: Dodgers 4 – Brewers 5

Win Probability: Dodgers 52%, Brewers 48%

Final Thoughts

I know that the Dodgers are the defending World Series champions and the favorites to win the title again this year. But they are playing some putrid baseball of late. They were run over by the Houston Astros three straight times over the weekend. And after getting beat by the Brewers on Monday, I expect them to struggle against Misiorowski on Tuesday as well. I’ll take the Brewers as an underdog in this game.
