Philadelphia Phillies
Philly is looking to take another series from the Braves and really put their rivals into a hole. So far they have been playing well but the offense has been just good enough. They can expect more.
Zach Wheeler was brilliant in his first start of the season, he tossed a one hitter over seven innings against Atlanta. Odds are he is not as good this time around but he is not a fade target. He has the stuff.
Philly’s pen has looked good. That bodes well for long-term success as the group was a disaster last year.
Atlanta Braves
The opening series for the Braves could not have gone much worse, though really it was just the hitting that was a disappointment. Freddie Freeman is the reigning NL MVP and he is hitting just .111 and Ozzie Albies is under .100. Only Ronald Acuna Jr. is really doing well.
Charlie Morton was serviceable in his first start since returning to the Braves. Three runs in five innings is not dominant but if this team hits like it can that will win more often than not.
The bullpen has been mostly OK but Will Smith has struggled in that closer role. They are still figuring out the roles there.

Free Philadelphia Phillies vs. Atlanta Braves MLB Prediction: Dodgers.
Atlanta might be at home but right now Wheeler vs. Morton looks like definitely an advantage for the Phillies. I am not going to rush into getting behind Atlanta just yet.
The Philles are good value too, I would have made them the favorite in this one so we get the right side without having to pay a premium.
