Cincinnati Reds DFS Spin
Reds first baseman Austin Wynns recorded multiple hits in his club’s 2-1 loss to the Braves on Tuesday. In that game, the 34-year-old right-handed hitter went 2 for 3 with a double. In 36 at-bats this season, Wynns is batting .417 with 3 homers, 11 RBIs, and an OPS of 1.184. Austin Wynns is hitting .480 in road games this season, making him an interesting DFS option if he’s in the lineup again at Truist Park on Wednesday.
Atlanta Braves DFS Spin
Braves designated hitter Marcell Ozuna had a nice day at the plate in his team’s 2-1 win over the Reds on Tuesday. Hitting out of the #3 spot in the batting order, the 34-year-old right-handed hitter went 1 for 5 with a single and an RBI. Ozuna is hitting .275 with 5 homers, 13 RBIs, and an OPS of .883 this year. Marcell Ozuna is batting .339 with an OPS of 1.033 in home games this season. That fact makes the former Cardinal worth a look in most DFS formats on Wednesday.

Reds vs. Braves Betting Prediction
I like Cincinnati’s chances in this game due to starting pitcher Hunter Greene. Greene has a prestigious pedigree, as he was the second overall pick of the 2017 MLB Draft. 2025 is shaping up to be Hunter Greene’s official breakout campaign. In 7 starts this year, the 6’5” 242-pound right-hander is 4-2 with a 2.53 ERA, a 0.82 WHIP, a 6.9 strikeout-to-walk ratio, an 11.6 K/9, and an opponent batting average of .174.
The 25-year-old Los Angeles native will be facing a Braves offense that ranks 12th in the National League in runs scored this year. Teams often refer to their aces as “stoppers.” That is, a terrific starting pitcher can stop a team’s losing streak with a great outing. I think Hunter Greene stops the Reds’ 4-game slide on Wednesday. The pick is Cincinnati -115 on the money line over Atlanta at Bovada.lv.
