Brewers vs. Phillies Prediction 4/24/22

We see this pitching match-up as close; Nola probably owns an edge, but he hasn't exactly been great so far this season. From there, we give Philadelphia an edge with the sticks, but Milwaukee owns an edge in the bullpen comparison. So our feeling is the line on this game should be a lot lower than it is. Which means we like the betting value here with the Brewers at the underdog price.
