Mets vs. Brewers Prediction, Winner Payout, Over/Under – Wednesday, July 22

Entering Wednesday, the Brewers possess the second-best record in baseball at 63-38. Milwaukee picked up right where they left off in the first half, with four wins in its first five games after returning from the All-Star break.

The Brewers will send SP Logan Henderson to the mound against the Mets for Wednesday’s afternoon showdown. Henderson has been incredibly productive, registering a 3.26 xFIP and a 2.91 xERA across 33.1 innings since joining the rotation. The right-hander has yielded 1 or fewer earned runs in three of his last four starts.

Meanwhile, the Mets have proven to be a mixed bag to begin the second half. However, New York did blank Milwaukee on Tuesday evening and was powered by solo home runs from 1B Jared Young and OF Luis Robert Jr.

SP Christian Scott will toe the rubber for the Mets in Wednesday’s series finale. Scott has also been relatively successful lately, as he hasn’t allowed an earned run in each of his last two starts.

The Brewers’ lineup has been one of the more dangerous groups in all of baseball. According to FanGraphs, Milwaukee ranks ninth in the majors in wRC+ (103), also racking up the fifth-most runs (510).
