Florida Marlins vs. Atlanta Braves

Free Pick: Florida Marlins +132

Craig has been riding the favorite the last 3 days in MLB but today his free play is a good value underdog!! Lets take a look at the records and trends here:

Records:

Florida (5-1) Volstad 1-0 (1.80 ERA)
Atlanta (5-1) Vazquez 0-0 (4.50 ERA)

Trends:

-Marlins are 12-3 in their last 15 games following a win.
-Marlins are 4-1 in their last 5 games as an underdog.
-Braves are 8-21 in their last 29 games as a favorite of -110 to -150.
-Braves are 6-1 in their last 7 games as a home favorite.

Atlanta turns to Vasquez who is 6-5 with a 4.68 ERA in 17 career games against the Marlins, whom he hasn't faced since 2005. Vasquez is 6-5 with a 4.68 ERA in 17 career games against the Marlins, whom he hasn't faced since 2005. Florida will hand the ball to Chris Volstad, a right-hander who went 6-4 with a 2.88 ERA in 15 games - 14 starts - as a rookie in 2008. Volstad continued his smooth transition to the majors in his 2009 debut Wednesday, holding Washington to one earned run while striking out a career-high seven in a 6-4 win. Volstad is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA in two starts against the Braves. Atlanta went 10-8 against Florida in 2008, including 6-3 at Turner Field. Atlanta is due for a letdown offensively and against one of the best young pitchers will definately have one. SCORE FLA 3 - ATL 1

If you can get a red hot 5-1 Florida team that can score with anybody in the league at +132 it seems like a no-brainer.
