ACTION on pitchers. ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Atlanta Braves +130 over Los Angeles Dodgers, Thursday at 8:08 PM ET – The Dodgers have not announced a starting pitcher yet but consider that this team has now gone cold at the plate and the Braves hold the edge and can close this series out with one more game of hot hitting. Los Angeles is expected to go with a true bullpen game here as no LA pitcher is really available for extended work and the Dodgers arms have not been nearly as strong in this series as they were in the prior series versus the Giants. The Braves have scored an average of 6.3 runs per game the last 3 games and we are going to take the hotter lineup and the team that has had the better bullpen in this series too and we are siding with the visitors in this one. Atlanta is expected to start Max Fried in this one and the southpaw has had a huge season and he went a combined 7-0 in August / September with a 1.46 ERA and has a 1.50 ERA in his two starts in this post-season as well. Even if Fried was not the starter and no matter who the Dodgers start here, we are riding the hot team in a potential close-out game and we will grab the road team at a nice come back underdog price on the money line in this one and bet Atlanta Braves +130
