JD Bets strongly recommends betting Tyler Alexander's strikeouts over 4.5 against the Colorado Rockies due to Colorado being the worst strikeout team in the MLB, averaging 11.2 Ks per game currently. Alexander has consistently hit at least six strikeouts in 3 straight outings against moderate-to-weak teams (Detroit, Toronto, Cincinnati), significantly above the 4.5 line being offered. Given Colorado’s league-worst swing-and-miss tendencies and Alexander’s strong recent strikeout form, JD sees this as a fantastic matchup to exploit with confidence.

Kenny G recommends taking the Brewers at -142 against Colorado, encouraged by pitcher Tyler Alexander's surprising recent form (5.2 hitless innings versus Reds) despite limited career experience starting. However, he advises caution due to Alexander’s age (30) and history of being primarily a bullpen arm. Kenny also cited Colorado pitcher Antonio Senzatela’s concerning early performance, allowing an alarming 19 hits over his first two starts. With Colorado currently holding MLB's worst bullpen ERA (following last year’s historically terrible bullpen performance) and ranking near the bottom offensively, Kenny views the Brewers as a trustworthy pick, albeit with minor hesitations about trusting Alexander completely.
