Braves vs. Nationals: Public Bettors Backing Atlanta in Opener

As of this writing, our MLB Public Betting Page shows that 64% of bets are on the Braves’ moneyline. That said, this page is updated frequently so make sure that you click on the link provided so that you’re getting the most updated information.

Duvall’s slump continues

Adam Duvall went 0-for-3 on Wednesday, leaving him 3-for-26 in his last seven games. Duvall homered in the game in which Ronald Acuña Jr. was hurt and then did so again the next day after becoming the Braves’ full-time right fielder, but he’s slumped since, putting him at .191/.277/.357 for the season. If this continues, the Braves might not be able to wait until the trade deadline to find themselves an additional outfielder.

Gallo drives in Nats’ lone run

Joey Gallo went 1-for-2 and drove in the Nationals’ lone run in Wednesday afternoon’s loss to the Mets. Gallo led off the sixth inning with a single but was quickly erased on a double play ball. He then drove in a run with a sacrifice fly off of Luis Severino in the eighth inning to finally get the Nats on the board. The 30-year-old slugger has been about as expected this season — hitting .164/.285/.336 with five homers, 11 RBI and a 65/19 K/BB ratio over 151 plate appearances.
