ATL -117

The Braves enter today as one of the best performing lineups across the MLB and now face a pitcher in Hunter Brown who is struggling. Hunter threw a nice game against the Yankees in his first start of the season but got knocked around by both the Rangers & Royals. Both lineups are solid but now faces a lineup that is tough 1-9 within their lineup. This is a tough matchup for Brown to face after 2 poor starts and a less than rested bullpen behind him.

The Braves turn to Reynaldo Lopez to make the start tonight who has been stellar in his previous 2 starts this season. The first start did come against a weak White Sox team but then came back and threw well against the Mets who were hitting their stride at the time and held them to 6 scoreless innings. He faces another tough lineup tonight but has a rested bullpen behind him and should have plenty of run support.
