Kansas City Royals vs Milwaukee Brewers 5/13/2023 Picks Predictions Previews
The Kansas City Royals will go against the Milwaukee Brewers in MLB action in American Family Field, WI, on Saturday, May 13, 2023, at 7:10 PM ET.
Any winning streak is appreciated when a club has a bad season-opening record like the Kansas City Royals had this year.
After winning a four-game series against the White Sox, they had a winning streak of four victories in five games heading into this one.
In April, their offensive may have been the worst in baseball, but in May, it was blazing. Only the Los Angeles Dodgers had a higher run average per game in May than Kansas City’s 6.70 entering this weekend.
They were just swinging at home up until this point, but Milwaukee will provide batters with a fresh setting. Let’s see whether Vinnie Pasquantino, Salvador Perez, and the rest of the group can transport the lumber on the road.
The batters may not need to accomplish much if Zack Greinke can turn in a classic performance in his former stomping grounds.
Despite the Royals winning three of his previous four outings, the 20-year veteran was not exactly at his best in 2023.
Greinke made eight appearances in the rotation and has a 1.7 HR/9, which would be a career-worst over the course of an entire season.
The second-worst single-season marks for his FIP (5.01), H/9 (10.4), and ERA (117) are all expected to be achieved this year.
- The total went UNDER in 5 of Kansas City’s last 7 matches.
- The Kansas City Royals are 4-2 SU in their last 6 matches.
- The Royals are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games with the Milwaukee Brewers.

Kansas City Royals vs Milwaukee Brewers Predictions 5/13/2023
The Brewers‘ eight-of-ten loss streak heading into this series is awful news for them.
The good news is that the rest of the division was so terrible that they were able to close the gap on the Pirates in first place during that time without dropping out of second.
The Brew Crew now has a fantastic chance to defeat a poor squad and get back on track. Milwaukee’s pitchers need to turn things around since they allowed 5.20 runs per game over their previous 10 games.
Although this stretch was not too bad, it caused them to fall to eighth in terms of runs surrendered per game and team ERA. Adrian Houser will start his 2nd game this year.
Milwaukee’s offense is not exempt either; in the ten games before this series, three of their outings accounted for two-thirds of their total runs. In six of the 10 games, they were limited to three runs.
Due to the current downturn, the Brewers’ offense dropped to 17th in runs per game and 20th in OBP. As Milwaukee hit 10 additional home runs during that time, they can at least claim that the home runs did not stop.
The Brewers attempted 12 steals, going 9-12 (75%) for a total that ranks 10th in the league. Finding holes is what Milwaukee needs most of all, though, as they rank last in doubles.
- The Milwaukee Brewers are 3-8 SU in their last 11 matches.
- The total remained UNDER in 5 of the Brewers’ last 7 matches against Kansas City.
- The total went UNDER in 4 of Milwaukee’s last 5 matches at home against Kansas City.
Kansas City Royals vs Milwaukee Brewers. The MLB pick for this game is the Kansas City Royals. Despite being the superior club, the Brewers aren’t currently playing better baseball.
Finally, Kansas City is producing hits, and the pitching staff is starting to tighten up. Greinke was not at the top of his game this year, but he produced a few quality starts.
The fact that he was leading Kansas City to victories lately is crucial. Although Adrian Houser only made one start this May, it was lucky for him the day the Brewers bats came out to play.
Who knows if that’ll happen to him again given what we witnessed. Ride the Kansas City Royals, who are the hotter team. The Kansas City Royals will win to a predicted score of 6-4.
