The Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers continue their three-game series Tuesday, July 8 with first pitch set for 7:40 p.m. ET on TBS. The Brewers got to Yoshinobu Yamamoto early in the series opener, tagging him for three of their five runs in the first inning of a 9-1 win. On the other side, Freddy Peralta kept the Dodgers quiet with six shutout innings. Los Angeles has now lost four in a row and has scored exactly one run in three of its last four games.

Those interested in MLB betting and looking for the latest Dodgers vs. Brewers odds, player props and predictions can check out the SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every game 10,000 times.

The Brewers are sending Jacob Misiorowski (3-1, 3.20 ERA) to the mound as he looks to bounce back from his first career loss. Misiorowski allowed just two runs over his first 16 innings but gave up five runs in 3 2/3 innings against the Mets in a 7-3 defeat. His strikeouts line is set at 5.5 at DraftKings Sportsbook (Over +115, Under -150), and the model is leaning to the Under. Clayton Kershaw (4-0, 3.43 ERA) gets the nod for Los Angeles, and he's been stellar of late. The Dodgers have won Kershaw's last six starts but the lefty did get knocked around a bit in his last outing against the White Sox. He allowed four runs on nine hits in six innings in the 5-4 win for Los Angeles. Kershaw's strikeouts prop at DraftKings is 3.5 (Over -155, Under +120), and the model likes the Over.

Shohei Ohtani has the shortest odds at +195 to go yard in Tuesday's contest. Though Ohtani has 30 home runs this season, he has not gone yard in his last six games. Andrew Vaughn, who hit a three-run shot in the first inning Monday, is +475 to go deep again, while Christian Yelich is +450 after hitting a solo home run Monday. Andy Pages (+370), Mookie Betts (+390) and Will Smith (+450) are other contenders to send one over the fence.

The Dodgers are -114 (wager $114 to win $100) favorites on the money line in the latest SportsLine consensus odds, while the Brewers are -105 (wager $105 to win $100) home underdogs. The total is 8.5. You can find the model's latest projections, along with expert picks for Dodgers-Brewers, at SportsLine.
