00:00Things are very bad for Atlanta.
00:02They have dropped seven consecutive games.
00:04They are now 10 games sub 500, 27 and 37.
00:08They need to stop the slide.
00:11Does it happen today with Chris Sale on the bump against the Brew Crew?
00:14And Atlanta now a minus 172.
00:17Road Moneyline favorite.
00:18Fork watch.
00:20Fork and the Braves right now.
00:21Total seven and a half.
00:23Can the Braves get back in the win column finally on this Monday, DRS?
00:28They should.
00:29Chris Sale's the better pitcher by a wide margin on the mountain.
00:31But having said that, I don't know if I want to lay a price point of minus 180 on the road
00:35with a struggling Braves team where it's not necessarily the starting pitching.
00:38It's really the hitting that hasn't really come through for them.
00:40But also having said that, there's two batters in the lineup that I do like tonight.
00:43You're looking at temperatures in Milwaukee, 65 degrees with the wind blowing out.
00:47It is a dome, but 65 degrees, might as well be 85 degrees, I guess, at this time of the year in Milwaukee.
00:52That's probably going to be open, let in a little bit more of the warmer weather,
00:55which again, isn't that warm at 65, but the wind blowing out,
00:58maybe you can get a little bit of an extra help there on a warning track fly ball.
01:02Looking at Drake Baldwin in the lineup tonight, his last 47 at-bats against right-handed pitching,
01:06it's been really good.
01:07A 244 ISO and a 407 weighted on-base percentage.
01:10Matt Olsen hasn't had a great season, but over the last month against right-handed pitching,
01:14he's been serviceable to the tune of a 300 ISO power number and a weighted on-base percentage of 413.
01:19Aaron Savali, not a good pitcher, has done decently against right-handed batters,
01:23thus the focus on Baldwin, the lefty, and Olsen, the lefty at the plate.
01:27Because you look at the last 30 days for Savali, a 222 ISO against a 367 weighted on-base percentage of lefty.
01:33If you go on the season, that elevates to a 343 ISO and a 399 weighted on-base percentage.
01:39That's the way I play this game.
01:41Even though Atlanta, on the mound with Chris Sale,
01:44you got some pretty good batters up there going up against left-handed pitch,
01:47excuse me, going up against left-handers.
01:48But for me, I just want to play it safe.
01:50I don't like the pitching matchup.
01:52I don't want to lay the wood here with the Atlanta Braves without having been struggling.
01:55But I would be surprised if Baldwin and or Olsen doesn't come away with an RBI.
01:59They'll both be plus money.
02:00You can put that into your back pocket tonight.
