The Atlanta Braves secured the NL East a long time ago. The Phillies currently own the top wild-card spot as we head for the postseason, but the lead is tenuous as five other teams are still in contention. The Braves would like nothing more than to hang some losses on the Phillies, and Atlanta has taken seven of 11 meetings between these teams this season. Chris Sanchez has made just one career start vs. Atlanta and lost. He had a 4.91 ERA in that start. Atlanta will go with Spencer Strider who is 36-14 lifetime, including 6-1 vs. the Phillies. He has a 2.70 ERA in those seven starts. Atlanta is 15-4 in Strider's last 19 starts, and 17-3 in his last 20 home starts. Make the Play on Atlanta.
