Betting Trends

The Braves are 4-2 SU in their last 6 games overall and 2-8 SU in their last 10 games against teams from the NL Central. Atlanta has played over the total run line in 7 of their last 8 games against the Reds and 4 of their last 5 home games against them while they have played under in 11 of their last 12 home games and 7 of their last 8 games overall. The Reds are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games overall, 2-5 SU in their last 7 games on the road and 2-6 SU in their last 8 games against teams from the NL.

Prediction and Conclusion

Both teams have had ups and downs in the last couple of weeks, which may be a problem for the Braves. They have a 75% chance of making it to the playoffs and will have to pick their game up in order to clinch a playoff berth. Atlanta will start veteran Charlie Morton, who is 8-7 for the season with a 4.24 ERA, 148 K, 142.1 IP, and 1.32 WHIP. The Reds will go with Nick Martinez, who is 7-6 for the season with a 3.67 ERA, 93 K, 115.1 IP, and 1.15 WHIP. Given the odds, the Braves are the favorite to win this one, but the Reds won the last two games in Atlanta, so we go with the Reds covering the +1.5-run spread.
