(MLB) Philadelphia vs. Atlanta,
Money Line: 117.00 Atlanta (Home)
Result: Win
As a good strikeout pitcher, Foltynewicz generally puts bats to the bench in his games for Atlanta, as shown by his 18Ks in 15 innings over 3 starts. 28 yr old Freddie Freeman has more than enough of an arm to play 1B - and is a substantial offensive weapon with a .320 avg, 2HRs, and 12 RBI through 4.15.18. Atlanta has won 6 of their last 10 games - at home they will own this game. The very real issue with Philadelphia is that they are a bottom level hitting team with poor plate discipline. With over 123 strikeouts, and only batting .220 as a team. And obviously - the Philly rotation is still a big concern - with a very low strikeout ratio. Philadelphia's Carlos Santana has been playing really down this year after hitting .259 in 2017 - with a horrid .167 avg and a .259 OBP. On the road the Phils have been far worse than when at home. Braves are 7-3 in their last 10 home games. Atlanta wins this one on Monday night!
