Milwaukee at Houston

Manny Parra, who is 0-3 with an 8.16 ERA goes for Milwaukee here. Yet, the Brewers, on the road, where they are averaging just 4.2 runs per game, are favored here. This line is out of whack and we'll take the home squad. Sure, Houston has had their issues thus far, but they are at home and have the pitcher who is performing better. The Brewers won a shoutout in game two, scoring 9 runs. But they are just 6-17 the past three seasons on the road coming off a 9+ run performance. Houston is 18-6 over that span when attempting to avoid the sweep. I look for the Astros and Ortiz to avoid it this afternoon.
