Washington Nationals @ Atlanta Braves

4:10 pm CST

The Braves are 10-0 in the opener of a series with rest as 135-plus favorites against a team that has lost at least its last three games and it is before the All-Star break. The Nationals are 0-17 in the first game of a series with no rest as 140-plus road underdogs when they scored fewer than three runs for their starter in his previous outing and it is before the All-Star break. Returning to one of my favorite hitting ballparks for this Over play. This total opened at 8.5 but quickly was bought up to 9. Washington's Joe Ross has yet to make it into the sixth inning this month, working only 22 frames over his last five starts. With a dangerous Braves lineup potentially facing a stretched thin bullpen for an extended period of time, I like this game to get to the total without much trouble. These teams are listed with the two highest visual memory indicators of Monday afternoon, as the air density is expected to be low. With all this in mind, let's back the Over at Truist Park, where it currently holds a record of 17-8-2.

Pick: Atlanta Braves + Over 7.5 (+145)

Bet: 1 unit
