Atlanta Braves
At least according to Baseball-Reference, Atlanta is still the large favorite to repeat as National League East champions, a quarter of the way through the season.
The Braves beat the Giants in the thirteenth inning on Thursday, 5–4, to complete a series victory: three games to one. Kevin Gausman went six innings and the bullpen held the Giants’ offense. Touki Toussaint and Luke Jackson combined to get the last thirteen outs without allowing a run.

Austin Riley drove in the winning run, collecting another three hits, and another three RBIs in the victory. He’s now 14-for-36 in the early start to his career.
Mike Soroka is a good-looking twenty-one-year-old from Canada. He’s collected 1.8 Wins Above Replacement in his first seven starts of the season and will look to get to 6–1 on Saturday.
Soroka has already hit a league-high six batters, proving the youngster isn’t afraid to throw inside. He’s hardly wild, though. He walks just 2.8 batters per nine innings and strikes out over eight.
St. Louis Cardinals
The Cardinals will enter this series on Friday having only played a doubleheader on Wednesday, which they split with the Royals.
The Birds were hot and then not. The struggles have dropped them all the way to fourth place in a competitive NL Central. Baseball-Reference still has them with a better than fifty percent chance to make the playoffs, though.

A lot of it has to do with how the pitching shakes out. Dakota Hudson had modest numbers so far in his first season as a regular starter but he’s getting better as we go along.
In four of his five April starts, he failed to finish his final inning. This month, he’s yet to be removed in the middle of a frame. He’s gone six three times and five once, having given up a total of eight runs. He’s struck out seventeen and walked nine.

Free Atlanta Braves vs. St. Louis Cardinals MLB Prediction: under.
I have to like Soroka, especially against a cold Cardinals’ lineup. But I believe in Hudson’s improvements and growing confidence. It’d be great to get at least an 8.0.
