Tampa Bay Rays at Milwaukee Brewers
Nick Martinez Is Starting World Series Game 1 Alone
The pick: Milwaukee Brewers -1.5 at +122 (FanDuel)
Lost. Final: Tampa Bay Rays 2, Milwaukee Brewers 3.
World Series Game 1 at American Family Field, and the argument for Milwaukee Brewers -1.5 +122 comes down to one sentence: Jacob Misiorowski starts for a 103-59 team that has won five straight and allowed 2.4 runs per game over those five games, against a Tampa Bay rotation that arrives with Shane McClanahan out, Edwin Uceta on the injured list, and Jonathan Heasley also on the injured list - meaning Nick Martinez has to carry this game largely alone.
