Free MLB Pick
Two pitchers on the mound tonight that are off to good starts, but we prefer the body of work that Shelby Miller has put together this season. The Braves have won all 4 of his starts this season and his historical stats versus the Reds lineup is strong. He hasn’t pitched over 6 innings this season so we’ll likely need some decent pitching from the bullpen.
