Atlanta Braves vs Miami Marlins Prediction

I’ll probably stay with the Braves. Also probably not touching it due to the hefty line. Tyler might do okay here, but Atlanta should have some opportunities. In his last pair of starts combined, Tyler is 0-1 with 8.2 innings and seven earned runs on 16 hits and four walks.

On Friday the Braves had a big eighth inning (three runs) and a big performance from Orlando Arcia (two RBI; homer). Otherwise there wasn’t much going on offensively. It’d be nice to see Atlanta get the bats going a little better Saturday.
