#MLB Free Pick from Mike Lundin
(MLB) Atlanta vs. Arizona,
Money Line: -160.00 Arizona (Home)
Result: Loss
Money Line: -160.00 Arizona (Home)
Result: Loss
Play: Arizona Diamondbacks
Rating: 5*
Runs have come easy for both the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Atlanta Braves as the teams have combined for 47 runs and 77 hits in the first three games of the four-game series. I like the D'Backs to get the better of their opponent here in the series-finale with a huge advantage on the mound.
Matt Wisler (4-11, 5.16 ERA) takes the ball for Atlanta. He'll make his first start since July 28 when he was sent down to the minors following a rough stretch. Wisler went 1-3 with a 10.18 ERA while serving up nine homers in 20 1/3 innings in his last four starts in the majors.
The D'Backs turn to Robbie Ray (7-11, 4.31). The left-hander has pitched effectively lately and enters the game as the reigning National League Player of the Week. He's 2-0 with an 0.95 ERA in his past three starts but allowed three runs on six hits in 4 1/3 innings at Atlanta on Aug. 14, 2015. He should still be able to put up a good enough performance to earn Arizona the W tonight.
Diamondbacks are 5-2 in their last seven home games, Braves are 2-9 in their last 11 overall.
Note that:
- Mike Lundin has TWO 10*-RATED SELECTIONS on Thursday. The action starts already in the afternoon with his *EARLY* Top Rated 10* AL *GAME OF THE WEEK* followed by Mike's Top Rated 10* MLB *TOTAL OF THE DAY* in the evening. If you're looking for a midnight snack you better not miss out on Mike's 8*-RATED MLB *LATE SHOW*.
