Stephen Nover's MLB Wednesday Wipeout Winner - 11-5 MLB Hot Streak
(MLB) Atlanta vs. St. Louis,
Money Line: -116.00 Atlanta (Away)
Result: Win
Money Line: -116.00 Atlanta (Away)
Result: Win
The Braves scored five runs in the first inning on lefty Jon Lester on Tuesday. Now the Braves get to face another over-the-hill southpaw, J.A. Happ.
Atlanta strengthened itself at the trade deadline especially when it comes to right-handed power getting Jorge Soler and Adam Duvall.
I can see the Braves steamrolling Happ, who has given up 4 or more earned runs in 10 of his last 14 starts.
Drew Smyly goes for Atlanta. He's allowed 3 runs or fewer in each of his last 10 starts. Smyly is 1-0 with a 1.86 ERA in two career starts versus St. Louis. He pitched 5 2/3 scoreless innings against the Cardinals on June 20 giving up only an infield single.
