Atlanta Braves Fantasy Spin
Ronald Acuna went 2-for-4 and hit his fourth homer against the Rockies on Tuesday. Half of Acuna’s hits this year have been homers. He’s also walked eight times, giving him an interesting .211/.362/.526 line.
Colorado Rockies Fantasy Spin
David Dahl (core) said he expects to be activated from the 10-day injured list when first eligible. That would be April 18. Dahl was placed on the injured list Tuesday after tweaking something in his left side on a swing against Dodgers southpaw Julio Urias on Sunday night. He told reporters that it should only really be a five-day injury, but the Rockies couldn’t play a man short for that long. Yonathan Daza will probably be sent back down to Triple-A Albuquerque when Dahl is ready.
MLB Betting Trends
Atlanta
The Braves have won seven of their last eight games overall.
Colorado
The Rockies are 0-5 in their last five games overall and are winless in their last six home games.
Prediction:
This Atlanta lineup is rolling right now and clearly the Braves like hitting at Coors Field (what hitter doesn’t?). Acuna hit a home run, as did Dansby Swanson, who tagged German Marquez for a three-run shot. The Braves have won five of their last six games against the Rockies at Coors and are 23-9 in their last 32 games overall versus the Rox. At -105, the moneyline odds are right for Atlanta.
The Pick: Atlanta Braves -105
