Braves vs Giants MLB Betting Preview
I’m very excited for this National League matchup, especially on the mound between two former Cy Young winners.
Chris Sale hasn’t lost anything in his age-37 season, running a 2.14 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and 29% strikeout rate through 84 innings this season.
While he hasn’t been quite as good, Robbie Ray has been pretty effective on the mound himself, running a 3.70 ERA across 88 frames.
Braves vs Giants Pick, Betting Analysis
But this will be a very tough test for Ray, given that Atlanta’s lineup is one of baseball’s best, even with Ronald Acuna Jr. on the IL.
In this matchup, I’m looking to bet on Michael Harris, especially considering he’s gotten the best of Ray in past encounters — Harris is 2-for-3 lifetime off Ray with a double and a homer.
I think Sale, Harris, and the Braves will have a big day against Ray, the sluggish San Francisco bats, and the uber-slow Giants defense.
Picks:
- Braves ML
- Braves -1.5
- Michael Harris Over 1.5 HRR
