Athletics vs Braves Preview
Athletics vs Braves Picks
Both squads project with around a 115 wRC+ against right-handed pitching, while both project closer to a 108 wRC+ against lefties.
In this matchup, the Braves will have the advantage, as they’ll have lefty Jose Suarez on the mound, while the A’s will have righty Aaron Civale.
Furthermore, Atlanta has a significant bullpen advantage because it has two left-handed relievers in the bullpen to neutralize Nick Kurtz, Lawrence Butler, Tyler Soderstrom, and the A’s other left-handed bats.
The A’s have only one left-handed reliever in the bullpen, Hogan Harris, who projects as a well below-average pitcher.
This line has moved slightly out of range, but if you can get the Braves at -140 or better on the ML — or -150 or better as a parlay piece — Atlanta has a significant platoon split on Tuesday.
Pick: Braves ML (-140 or Better)
