Atlanta Braves vs. Miami Marlins Prediction

I’m on Atlanta in this one. I know Miami drew first blood on Friday but if this is going to be a bullpen game, I still feel like I can trust Atlanta’s bullpen more in this matchup and the Braves have still owned Miami in the regular season series between these two teams this season. I think this ends up being a Braves win to even up the set so give me Atlanta here.
