Braves vs Rockies Pick, Betting Analysis

Baldwin will face a Rockies pitching staff that continues to struggle and this matchup sets up well for a hitter who has been consistently productive so far. He already has 40 hits on the year and continues to be a steady presence in the Braves lineup.

While he’s cleared this number in two of his last five games, Baldwin has gone over in four of his last 10. Against a staff that allows plenty of balls in play, Baldwin should have ample opportunity to rack up hits.

Pick: Drake Baldwin Over 1.5 Hits
