Colorado Rockies vs. Atlanta Braves MLB Prediction:
I look for the Braves to keep up their good play in this one. They need to be able to beat teams like Colorado.
Atlanta is the better team and they will show that in this one. I do not give the Rockies much of a chance here.
This does have a chance to be a good pitchers matchup. I look for Toussaint to be a little better than Gray and lead his team to a win.
I like the Braves straight up here.
