Braves vs Dodgers Preview

In his recent outing against the Padres, Sale pitched five innings, allowing three runs and striking out seven. He had a solid spring training with a 2.79 ERA over five starts.

Dustin May will take the mound for the Dodgers. During spring training, May showed promise with a strong performance against the Angels, allowing only one run over five innings. Both pitchers will aim to set the tone for their teams as the regular season gets underway.

Dodgers Ready to Swing into Action

The Dodgers have a strong lineup with Shohei Ohtani leading the charge. In five games, Ohtani has a .333 batting average and two home runs. He has also scored eight runs, showing his ability to get on base and contribute to the team’s offense. Tommy Edman adds power to the Dodgers’ lineup with three home runs in five games. Despite a .238 batting average, Edman has driven in four runs. His ability to hit for power is a key part of the Dodgers’ offense this season. Will Smith has been consistent at the plate with a .417 batting average. He has also shown patience with a .588 on-base percentage. Smith’s ability to get on base and drive in runs makes him a valuable player for the Dodgers.

Braves Look to Shine on the Road

The Braves are working to improve their hitting. Marcell Ozuna has a .222 batting average with a high on-base percentage of .562. He has driven in two runs over four games, showing some ability to contribute despite no home runs yet. Austin Riley is aiming to find his groove at the plate. He has a .143 batting average but has managed to hit one home run. Riley has scored twice and driven in one run, looking to build on these numbers. Ozzie Albies has also hit one home run this season. His batting average sits at .133, and he has driven in three runs. The Braves hope Albies can improve his numbers as the season progresses.

Final Betting Pick

The Dodgers are a strong pick for the money line at -180. They have started the season with a perfect 6-0 record and play well at home. Their lineup includes hitters like Shohei Ohtani and Will Smith, who are performing well early in the season. The Braves, on the other hand, are struggling with a 0-5 start and a low team batting average of .148.

Taking the under 8.0 at -113 seems reasonable given the current stats. The Braves’ offense has not been producing, with only three home runs and a .238 slugging percentage. The Dodgers’ pitching staff has a 2.94 ERA, which suggests they can keep the Braves’ hitters in check. With Dustin May on the mound, the Dodgers have a good chance to limit runs in this game.
