MLB Playoffs: Love the Cardinals

Brewers at Dodgers, 10:08 p.m | TV: ESPN
The Pick: Under 7.5 (-120) —  We’re going back to the well here too. I liked the under in this matchup on Wednesday, and it’s just as attractive here tonight. Brandon Woodruff isn’t well-known, but he’s been a reliable starter for the Brewers and misses a lot of bats. Current Dodgers hitters have struck out in 35.7% of their plate appearances against him. Then there’s Clayton Kershaw taking the mound for the Dodgers, and he’s Clayton Kershaw. Sure, he’s had struggles in the postseason during his career, but a part of me wonders if playing these games in an empty stadium might benefit his nerves. Either way, I don’t see many runs being scored in this one, particularly with a light breeze blowing in from center through most of the night.
