Predictions

Dylan Cease, starting for the Padres, holds a 6-6 record with a 3.95 ERA and 106 strikeouts. For the Brewers, Colin Rea boasts a stronger 6-2 record with a 3.29 ERA and 54 strikeouts. Despite Cease's recent struggles, his career head-to-head stats against the Brewers are impressive. The Brewers, though, appear more consistent overall, which may tip the scales in their favor. Expect a close game.
