Brewers vs Dodgers MLB Betting Preview
This game will probably resemble the opener of this series, which featured a pitching duel between Tyler Glasnow and Quinn Priester, rather than last night's 8-7 score.
Jose Quintana will face a surprisingly slumping Dodgers offense. Los Angeles had ranked among the top three in run production until the beginning of July.
This month, Los Angeles ranks 29th in wRC+ with 73, 28th in average (.210) and 29th in slugging (.339).
Quintana already dominated them on July 9, conceding only one run and two hits in six complete innings. Besides, he's an entirely different pitcher on the road this season. He holds a 1.82 ERA away from home compared to his 5.12 ERA at the American Family Field in Milwaukee.
On the other side, we have Clayton Kershaw. After struggling — by his standards — last year, he's posting strong numbers again in 2025. In his last seven games, the future Hall-of-Famer has a 2.95 ERA.
Kershaw faced this Brewers lineup on July 8, allowing only two runs and six hits in six innings. In day games, the lefty holds a 1.69 ERA this season.
This aligns with our Bet Labs recommendation for the under.
Brewers vs Dodgers Pick, Betting Analysis
The "Silent Sharp Unders" system targets regular-season MLB games where both teams are performing well, yet the total has quietly dropped from open to close.
These are games featuring competent, winning teams with recent success, stable weather conditions and closing totals in a standard scoring range.
Despite both teams showing strength, the market subtly favors the under likely due to matchup specifics, pitching or pace factors.
By following this subtle signal — when the public eye is more focused on win streaks rather than totals — this system finds value in betting against inflated scoring expectations.
Pick: Under 9
