San Francisco Giants vs. Atlanta Braves MLB Prediction:
This is a matchup between 2 good teams in the National League. I think it has the chance to be a very good series.
The Giants are the better team, but I am not convinced they will win game 1. I like the way the Braves have been playing and I think they will be sharp in this one.
Max Fried was very good in his last outing and I look for him to be sharp in this one as well. I feel that Atlanta will do enough against the starter for San Francisco.
I like the Braves on the moneyline in this one.
