Tech, what, what are you gonna do about Milwaukee?
Best record in Major League Baseball.
They're at home, taking on a Rangers team that Cody Bradford is going 0 and 2, but he actually, he's, he's pitched better than, than what obviously the 0 and 2.
He came off the IL, during the month here.
He's had some decent starts.
I, I mean, Logan Henderson going for Milwaukee.
It's just so I, I don't wanna lay $2 on Milwaukee, but it feels like, an under spot here, Craig.
If anything- I do.
That's- seven and a half what I was gonna say.
Under first five- Right under first five- There you go probably.
I mean, Detroit's or, Texas's bullpen is still not great other than, uh- Right Latz.
So I, I, I- Yep I think, you know, two to one after five innings, somewhere along those lines.
The, the thing with Texas is they fall in line for me, Joe, as to one of those teams that night by night I have no idea what they're gonna do.
Right.
Like, I understand Cincinnati every once in a while is gonna score 10 runs, but generally if you fade them, they're gonna get shut out twice a week.
Texas is, it feels like they win, they lose, they win, they lose, they win, they lose.
Like I, I can't I have no bead whatsoever and no feel for how they're gonna perform on any given night.
So I, it wouldn't surprise me to see that, but Milwaukee is chasing the best record in the history of the franchise at home this season, and they're closing in on it already.
Yeah.
You know?
So, that's another team I don't wanna go against, but I think that you just hit what I would do.
Under first five.
Yeah.
I mean, at 83 and 51, they've won eight of their last 11.
I think in the last two games they've scored 16 runs, so, you're also talking about a Rangers team that's given up 21 runs in its past two games, both losses to the White Sox.
66 and 68.
Somebody's gotta win that division.
Right.
Somebody's gotta win the American League West.
And as much as I don't like the Astros, it, it feels like that's the, that's the team that it's gonna be that's gonna win the American League West, and I hate to admit it.
Probab- probably, but far from over.
Far from over.
Yeah.
We still have time.
I'm not gonna rule that out, so I'm gonna say that Seattle, even though I don't want them to, to win because I think that they've just so far underachieved, it would be something if they just picked it up here in the last week.
Houston or Texas for me.
