Milwaukee Brewers @ Chicago Cubs - June 18, 2025

Alright, folks! Get ready for an electric matchup on Wednesday at Wrigley Field as the Milwaukee Brewers take on our beloved Chicago Cubs. I can feel the excitement building up in the air already—there’s nothing quite like a good old divisional showdown! With bragging rights on the line, you can be sure that both teams will be coming out swinging.

Let’s break it down! First off, we’ve got Jacob Misiorowski taking the mound for the Brewers. Now, while he boasts a pristine 0.00 ERA this season and is sporting a perfect record, I have to say I’ve watched enough baseball to know that numbers don’t always tell the whole story. He might be a newcomer making waves, but stepping into Wrigley against our fierce Cubs lineup is a different beast altogether.

On the flip side, Jameson Taillon has been solid this season with a 3.6 ERA and an impressive 7-3 record. He’s shown he can handle pressure situations, and I have faith that he’ll rise to the occasion against these Brewers hitters who are struggling to find their rhythm lately—averaging just over 4 runs per game with a batting average around .230. Give me Taillon any day of the week!

What’s really got me fired up is how our Cubs’ offense has been clicking lately—averaging over 5 runs and nearly 9 hits per game. Those numbers speak volumes about their capability to grind out at-bats and get runners across home plate. And let’s not forget about their current three-game winning streak; momentum is everything in baseball!

Looking at past matchups doesn’t make my heart race any less either—Chicago won their last meeting against Milwaukee by a score of 5-3. So not only do we have history on our side, but we’re also playing at home where our crowd gets rowdy! There’s no better feeling than hearing “Go Cubs Go!” ringing through Wrigley when that final out is recorded.

Now let’s talk betting lines for those interested in some action; odds-makers opened with us favored at -147—seems about right to me considering our form and home field advantage! The total has been set at 8, but if you ask me (and my lucky jersey), I think tonight’s game will go UNDER once again given both pitchers’ abilities.

So what can we expect? I predict it’ll be a hard-fought battle as always between these two rivals, but ultimately I see our Cubbies walking away with another win under their belts—and keeping those pesky Brewers fans quiet for yet another night in Chicago!

In conclusion: Cubs win tonight against the Brewers (let’s keep it under that total). Grab your snacks, put on your lucky gear (yes, even if it brings bad luck sometimes!), and let’s cheer loud and proud for our boys! It’s going to be an unforgettable evening of baseball—go Cubs go!
