The Brewers were second in the National League last season in home wins with 49, and they showed yesterday it takes more than a top pitcher like Harden to beat this Milwaukee team. There are lots of praises for Zambrano, but getting the Brew Crew on home turf as a dog is always valuable. Dave Bush might not have the pedigree of Zambrano, but he pitched the Brewers to 11 home wins last year, which is more wins than the Cubs got from Zambrano on the road! So we are getting a solid home team with plus money vs. a team that was about breakeven on the road. We also have a pitcher that doesn't have the name, but delivered more wins than his high-profile opponent in the given setting. The value goes to the Brewers here.
