Atlanta Braves vs. Colorado Rockies MLB Prediction:
The Braves started off the series well and I look for them to win again in game 2. I feel they match up well with the Rockies.
Atlanta is the better team and I feel they will take care of business in this one. I just think they will be too much for the Rockies to handle.
I look for Ynoa to keep up his good pitching and for the Braves to hit around Senzatela enough to get a win.
Give me the Braves on the moneyline.
