Money Line: -106.00 Atlanta (Away)
Result: Loss
The Braves are hotter than Arizona and have the superior starting pitcher going. So the price certainly is reasonable.
The markets don't show much respect for Shelby Miller. That's a mistake as Miller is 5-2 with a 1.48 ERA and 0.88 WHIP. Opponents are batting only .175 against him. No team has scored more than two earned runs during any of Miller's 10 starts this season. The Braves have a fresh bullpen, too, thanks to Alex Wood's strong performance last night.
Atlanta is in a rebuilding year, but the Braves are playing well now winning three in a row and winning a series on the road from the Giants. The Braves are averaging 7.6 runs in their last three games batting .313 during this span.
Arizona has dropped five of its last seven. Diamondbacks starter Josh Collmenter is several tiers lower than Miller. He's 0-3 with a 4.91 ERA in his last three starts versus Atlanta.
Collmenter has a 5.05 ERA on the season. His fastball velocity is down from past seasons, which is reflected in a strikeout-per-nine inning ratio drop of 8.3 from two years ago to 4.6 this season.
