Cincinnati at Atlanta

Premium Pick

The Atlanta Braves had the worst spring record in each of the last two years, and finished last in the NL East a year ago, and little was expected this season. They have certainly overachieved at 54-65 on the season, while the Reds have just not been very good at all. The Reds pitching staff is getting worse, and over their last 12 games have allowed a staggering 7.08 runs per contest. This is not a formula for success, and the Braves have been able to swing the bats, scoring 19 runs combined in their last two vs. Cincinnati, both wins. Cincinnati is just not getting it done on the mound, and the Braves have proven capable of taking advantage of it. Take Atlanta.
