The Arizona Diamondbacks will play the Atlanta Braves in Game 2 of their series at Truist Park on Saturday night.

The Arizona Diamondbacks are 45-54 this season and have won three of their last four games. Arizona lost Game 1 of this series by a score of 5-2 on Friday night. The Arizona pitching staff has a 4.19 ERA, a 1.29 WHIP, and a .248 opponent batting average this season. The Diamondbacks offense has scored 424 runs with a .226 batting average and a .306 on base percentage. Christian Walker is batting .202 with 23 home runs and 52 RBI’s for the Diamondbacks this season. The projected starter for Arizona is Corbin Martin, who is 0-0 with a 3.93 ERA and a 1.64 WHIP over 18.1 innings pitched this season.

The Atlanta Braves are 60-41 this season and have lost three of their last five games. Prior to winning Game 1 of this series, Atlanta lost two out of the three games played in their series against Philadelphia. The Atlanta pitching staff has a 3.65 ERA, a 1.23 WHIP, and a .232 opponent batting average. The Braves offense has scored 479 runs with a .248 batting average and a .312 on base percentage this year. Austin Riley is batting .299 with 29 home runs and 67 RBI’s for the Braves this season. The projected starter for Atlanta is Ian Anderson, who is 8-6 with a 5.31 ERA and a 1.58 WHIP over 95 innings pitched this season.

Arizona is 6-2 in their last 8 games and 17-35 in their last 52 Saturday games. The under is 11-5 in Arizona’s last 16 Saturday games. Atlanta is 10-3 in their last 13 games against the NL West and 21-7 in their last 28 home games. The over is 9-2-1 in Atlanta’s last 12 games. Arizona is 5-2 in these two teams last 7 head to head meetings in Atlanta.

Atlanta has been having a very good season and only trails the Mets by three games in the NL East standings. Atlanta will start Ian Anderson in this game, who has struggled this season. Anderson has allowed 10 runs in his last 13.2 innings pitched for the Braves. For the Diamondbacks, Corbin Martin has allowed six runs over his last 11.1 innings. It is tough to go against the Braves, but I think the Diamondbacks have some value in this game with how poor Ian Anderson has been this season. I am taking Arizona here.
