Free Betting Pick: Atlanta Braves +125
The Atlanta Braves have dominated the Washington Nationals, especially when Stephen Strasburg is on the mound as they have won 9 of their last 13 meetings. The Atlanta Braves are one of the hottest teams in the MLB as they have won 11 of their last 13 games, and they look like a team that is here to stay. The Atlanta Braves made the big move of signing Dallas Keuchel just a week ago, and he will finally be making his season debut here. I expect the Keuchel to pick up where he left off with the Houston Astros and dominate a below average Nationals team. The Braves have too much talent in their lineup to slip up and fall into a slump, and we will see them continue to put their foot on the gas in this one. Final Score Prediction, Atlanta Braves win 5-4.
