ATL -148

PIT +1.5-130

0.77u

Braves flailing on the road – 6-15 last 21 away, avg just 3.77 runs/game. Pirates stronger at PNC – allow only 3.47. ATL road ERA 4.69 vs PIT home ERA 4.50. Over is 7-1 in last 8 in Pittsburgh – home bats show up. Pirates offense quietly heating. Bryce Elder a problem – 42.3% HardHit%, .341 xWOBA, just 15.9 K%. Pirates hitters match up well: Cruz 60.5% HardHit%, .411 xWOBA. Reynolds 46.2%, Hayes 48.6%, McCutchen .376 xWOBA. Elder walks too many (8.7 BB%) – contact + traffic = trouble. Braves bullpen untrustworthy – Iglesias 5.40 ERA, Minter 4.15 ERA with ugly 1.96 WHIP. Pirates can capitalize late.
