Full Game Side Bet

Insider status:

Rating:

The Braves have won three of their last five games. They are not playing well offensively and have scored 14 points in their last four games. But they will play well offensively in this game as they had a lot of batting success against lefties and Herz struggled on the mound in his first start, allowing four runs. With Washington’s bullpen struggling, they will have a hard time slowing down the Braves in this game.

The Nationals have lost five of their last six home games. They have also struggled offensively and have scored just five points in their last three games. Their offensive struggles will continue in this game as they haven’t hit the ball well against lefties and Fried has done a good job on the mound for the Braves, allowing just five runs in his last three road starts . He pitched eight innings against the Nationals in May and didn’t allow a run in that game, so expect him to once again control their offense. Go with Atlanta to cover the running line.

Prediction: Atlanta Braves -1.5

Rating:

The Braves are averaging 4.44 runs per game and 4.63 runs per game on the road. They’ve averaged 2.33 runs per game in their last three games against the Nationals. With Washington allowing 4.32 runs per game at home, the Braves will hit their average in this game. The Nationals are averaging 3.89 points per game and 3.86 points per game at home. They have averaged 2.33 runs per game in their last three games against the Braves. With Atlanta giving up 2.75 points per game in road games started by Fried, the Nationals won’t score enough points to surpass the total. The Braves and Nationals have played under in four of their last five meetings.
