This is a mismatch today between a team with a much better offense and bullpen against at team struggled on opening weekend to bat under .200 to get swept. They only generated 8 runs in three games. Flexen ended last season with an ERA of 4.95 and in this season's spring training finished with an ERA of 6.86. This is also a revenge series for the Braves as they lost two of three games to the White Sox last season in their summer series. Morton has had good success against this White Sox team and ended the second half of last season strong, so back him and the Braves to get the win. Morton is 4-0 when starting against CWS with an ERA of 2.55 and a WHIP of 0.892.

Atlanta are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games against Chi White Sox. Chi White Sox are 0-6 SU in their last 6 games. Flexen is 0-1 when starting against Atlanta with an ERA of 7.20 and a WHIP of 1.200. The Braves are 33-11 straight up in the last few seasons as a road favorite of -175 or more. Morton is 11-5 SU in the last few seasons as a favorite of -175 to -250.

Best bet: take Atlanta on the runline.
