The Milwaukee Brewers face the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday night with the visitors priced at a 67% win probability as I make my Brewers vs. Orioles predictions.

Jacob Misiorowski has developed into one of baseball's most dominant starters, and Milwaukee gets a favorable pitching matchup against Brandon Young.

MLB picks for Sept. 20 back the Brewers on the run line while expecting another low-scoring game at Camden Yards

Who will win Brewers vs Orioles today: Brewers -1.5 

For help understanding probabilities, see our odds calculator.

I'm taking the Milwaukee Brewers to cover the run line up to 55%.

The guy on the mound for the Brewers is quite good, as Jacob Misiorowski enters Sunday with a 1.89 ERA and 2.08 xERA

Misiorowski ranks in the 99th percentile or better in xERA, strikeout rate, barrel rate, and fastball velocity, giving the Baltimore Orioles very few obvious paths to sustained offense. Particularly concerning for the O's is the strikeout stuff, with Baltimore rising to fifth in whiff rate over the last three weeks. 

Brandon Young has been solid with a 3.65 ERA, but his 4.42 xERA is considerably less impressive. The most direct route to slowing down the Brew Crew's offense is with an elite groundball profile. Young is just average in such metrics. I envision Milwaukee's offense getting to him sooner than later while Miz controls the game.

Covers COVERS INTEL: Miz enters Sunday with a 38.2% strikeout rate while allowing a barrel on just 3.8% of batted balls, ranking among MLB's elite in both categories.

Brewers vs Orioles Over/Under pick: Under 7.5 (52%)

The Miz gives Baltimore a difficult assignment, but Brandon Young is the more interesting part of this handicap at such a low total. I like this to 7 at 47%.

His 4.42 xERA suggests some regression risk, but Young has allowed just a 6.7% barrel rate, giving him a path to limit damaging contact. I expect Milwaukee to eventually get to him because he lacks groundball prowess, but the runs are unlikely to come in bulk if recent trends hold. The Brewers were held to just one run and three hits Saturday against a middling Trevor Rogers.

It's also helpful that the Brewers hold enough bullpen depth to forecast that type of game script late. I’ll take the Under.

Brewers vs Orioles home run prediction: Jackson Chourio (18%)

Jackson Chourio owns a .475 xSLG with a 12.4% barrel rate this season and has hit 47% of his batted balls at 95 mph or harder. He's developed into one of the Brewers' most consistent sources of loud contact.

Young has kept his overall barrel rate relatively low, but hitters have still produced a .406 xSLG against him, and his lack of elite swing-and-miss stuff means Chourio should get opportunities to put the ball in play.
