Matchup History
Atlanta’s 11-0 win over the Marlins on Monday made it five straight meetings between these two teams without back-to-back winners in this matchup.
Trends
Miami is 14-32 in their last 46 division games and 8-3 in their last 11 games overall while the under is 12-3-2 in their last 17 games against a team with a winning record. Atlanta is 93-45 in their last 138 games overall and 47-19 in their last 66 home games while the over is 28-10-3 in their last 41 games against a team with a winning record.
Pick
I’m backing the over here. I just don’t trust the pitching matchup here, as Morton’s been better at home but he gives up runs in bunches, and even if we get a solid outing from him here, the Braves showed on Monday how well they can swing the bat and I look for another high-scoring one here.
