Phillies vs Braves Prediction

I’m on the Braves here. Despite the frustrating form of the Braves on the road this season, the fact of the matter here is that this is still a division rivalry matchup. Strider, despite some off numbers, for me, is still the ace or at worst, #2 in this Braves rotation. He’s owned the Phillies in his career, and I think that the Phillies will be fine in this series. I think it’s going to be low-scoring as I don’t think Suarez gets crushed, but he’s had recent issues in his career against Atlanta, and I think the Braves steal the opener. Give me Atlanta.
