Cardinals vs Braves Preview
The Braves and Cardinals will square off on Wednesday evening in the second of a three-game set at Truist Park in Atlanta. Reynaldo Lopez will take the mound for Atlanta, while St. Louis will start Michael McGreevy.
This sets up to be a great pitching matchup. Both starters have sub-3.50 ERAs across the first half of the season.
Cardinals vs Braves MLB Picks
With that said, I think we'll see a clean first inning. However, I expect the Braves to continue slugging at the plate and pull off a home win in this matchup.
Picks:
- Braves ML (-134)
- NRFI (-100)
