There has obviously been a lot of positive changes in Pittsburgh. The Pirates, who have struggled through two decades of losing, has finally reached contender status. That being said, I just don't think the oddsmakers have caught up to this team yet. In their last eight home wins, the Pirates have won all but one by 2 runs or more. Milwaukee caught lightning in a bottle for awhile, as they ran off nine straight wins, but the before and after have been mighty ugly, as the Brew Crew stands at just 7-21 otherwise. Recently, they have fallen hard and fast at just 2-10 in their last 12 games. I look for Pittsburgh to keep pouring it on at home, and will play Pittsburgh on the runline.
