Toronto Blue Jays vs. Atlanta Braves
Saturday, September 07, 2024 – 07:20 PM ET at Truist Park
The AI Model believes the Braves will escape with a 4.5-3.8 victory against the Blue Jays at home. With the Braves at -170, the play is the Braves on the moneyline per the AI Model.
Atlanta’s Offense Has Elite Hitters
The Atlanta offense is inconsistent. However, inside the lineup, there are four batters in the projected lineup, hitting a .182 ISO and wOBA of .344 or better in the last month.
That should help against Jose Berrios, who has still allowed 26.6% of line drives and more than 40% of hard contact over the last month. Berrios has been good, but the Braves have ways to take advantage of him.
Spencer Schwellenbach Is Key!
The Braves will run it back with Spencer Schwellenbach. He’s a righty who has held his last 115 batters to a .114 ISO and wOBA of .279. He’s struggled a bit against lefties over the previous month, but the Blue Jays’ lefties have struck out more than 21% of the time in that same period.
In addition, Toronto has earned only 6.4% of walks over the last 30 days against righties and would need to add hits to even get on base.
The Pick
According to the AI Model, the Braves have the advantage. I’d agree. Back them for tonight’s game.
