I will take the Bluejays +1.5 at home vs the Braves for these reasons:

- Two strong pitchers on the mound for both teams. Spencer Strider makes his season debut for Atlanta and Chris Bassitt is starting in the mound for the Bluejays. Good track records for both pitchers who normal have lengthy time on the mound each game, so we can expect likely under 5 runs overall before they leave the mound. The question remains to see how Spencer will start his season, coming off Tommy Johns Surgery last April and how cautious the Team will be in his pitch count.

- It’s a tough return for Spencer Strider vs a Bluejays team that has averaged 4 runs per game, with a .331 on base percentage, and one of the least struck out teams in baseball. I can’t see this braves team withstanding the Bluejays bats after Strider gets pulled from the mound, so let’s take the home team to not get beat my more than 1 run if not win the game outright.

Official Play: Bluejays +1.5 Runs

Side Bet: Bassitt over 5.5 strikeouts

Hail Mary: Under 7.5 runs
