Reds Betting Preview
Cincinnati comes in at 4-5 following the loss to Atlanta. The Reds have dropped four of their last five games, and they’ll face another stiff test here with the Braves here. The Cincinnati offense is scoring 4.17 runs per game, while batting .251, with a .329 on-base percentage. The Cincy staff carries a 4.54 ERA, with a 1.46 WHIP. Jonathan India recorded three hits versus the Braves, and he leads the Reds in batting average (.324).
Luis Cessa (0-0, 3.38 ERA, 2 Ks) will take the mound for Cincinnati. The longtime relief pitcher was solid in his first start versus Chicago, only allowing two runs in just over five innings pitched.
Braves Betting Preview
Atlanta improved 7-4 after defeating Cincinnati. The Braves snapped a three-game losing streak with the win in extras, and they’ll now look to create some separation atop the NL East. The Atlanta offense is scoring 3.85 runs per game, while batting .265, with a .347 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 3.73 ERA, with a 1.46 WHIP. Matt Olson has produced a RBI in four of the last six games, and he leads the team in batting average (.333).
Kyle Wright will make the start for Atlanta. This will mark the season debut for the 2022 NL wins leader, and he was truly one of the best in the majors last season. Wright posted a 21-5 record, with a 3.19 ERA and 174 strikeouts.
Cincinnati vs Atlanta Trends
Cincinnati is 3-5 against the spread this season, with a 4-3-1 over/under record. Atlanta is 2-6 ATS this year, with a 4-4 O/U record.
Corey's Free Pick
Kyle Wright was one of the best arms in the majors last season, and he comes into a very ideal spot to make his 2023 debut here versus an underwhelming Reds lineup. The Braves should come out sharper after needing extras to pick up the victory, and that sense of urgency could reflect on the scoreboard. Cincinnati’s in the midst of a skid, and Atlanta should be able to take care of business at home here.
