Atlanta (-119) for 2 Units
Braves should deliver in this spot. Atlanta is 20-8 as a road favorite, including 5-1 on the road in this price range. They're also 10-2 on the road vs righties and should get the best of Mat Latos who is coming off a sluggish season debut Saturday at Colorado. The Braves are 5-1 after scoring 5+ runs in previous game. We'll look for Atlanta to give the needed run support to Tim Hudson who was impressive in his season debut despite the loss. Hudson throws strikes and eats innings as exhibited at SF last Friday with no walks in 7 innings with only 77 pitches thrown (0.43 WHIP). That kind of pitching doesn't bode well for the Padres, which are a money burning 13-40 vs a starter with a WHIP of less than 1.15. With the Braves at 11-4 in SD, we'll grab them here.
