Odds from Betonline.ag
The Reds and Braves are actually coming in with a good starting pitcher for both teams. However, the Reds are coming in with a lot of their offensive powerhouse gone on the season and that can definitely cost the Reds in this game here. Still, look for the Reds to put up a little bit of a fight and the pitching from Mahle to keep the game close enough that it ends on the under. Still the great pitching from Mahle will not be seen to fruition as the Reds offense will not do good against Fried.
