Atlanta at Los Angeles

Premium Pick

The Atlanta Braves, including the Dodgers, were considered the best team in the NL. This team has been plagued all season with depth-challenging issues in its pitching staff. If the playoffs started today, it would not include the Braves. They have an opportunity here vs a struggling Angels team to sweep and put three wins on the board, especially with the sizzling Chris Sale on the mound tomorrow. The Braves are usually dictated by their pitching, but in three of their last six games, the Braves have generated eight or more runs. Looks like a good time to grab the Braves here. I like Atlanta in this one.
