Giants vs Braves Prediction
The Giants are 6-1 in their last 7 meetings against the Braves and have won their last two visits in Atlanta.
In this Giants vs Braves Prediction, the Braves are coming as -140 home favorites. I don’t trust Robbie Ray on the road for the Giants, as he is 1-5 with a 5.35 road ERA, while JR Ritchie has a 2.79 home ERA for the Braves. On top of that, the Braves have the best bullpen in baseball and the 5th-best offense, so I expect them to take care of business at home in this one.
