The Dodgers won the first game of the series 2-1, while the Braves are struggling with a record of 14-17 this season, indicating they are having a below-average year. In contrast, the Dodgers are thriving with a 22-10 record, showcasing their status as one of the top teams in the league.<\/p>\n<p>On the mound, the Braves will send out Spencer Schwellenbach, who is currently ranked as the 16th best starting pitcher in MLB according to advanced stats. Schwellenbach has had a solid start to the season with a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">2.87<\/a> ERA, though his 3.68 xERA suggests he might be due for some regression. He projects to pitch 5.4 innings today, allowing 2.5 earned runs, though his tendency to give up 5.2 hits and 1.5 walks will be a point of concern against a powerful Dodgers lineup that ranks 3rd in MLB offensively.<\/p>\n<p>Roki Sasaki takes the mound for Los Angeles, and while he is a good pitcher, ranked 46th, he has struggled with a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">3.55<\/a> ERA and an alarming 5.25 xFIP, indicating he may also be overperforming. Sasaki&#8217;s projections are less favorable, as he is expected to pitch only 4.7 innings while allowing an average of 2.4 earned runs.<\/p>\n<p>Offensively, the Braves rank 14th overall but have been inconsistent, particularly with their power numbers. Meanwhile, the Dodgers boast the 3rd best offense, highlighted by their 2nd place rank in home runs. With the Braves&#8217; implied team total set at 4.40 runs, it appears the betting market believes they have a chance to keep this game close, especially given Schwellenbach&#8217;s potential to limit the damage against a team that thrives on hitting home runs.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Los Angeles Dodgers Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Roki Sasaki &#8211; Over\/Under Pitching Outs<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Roki Sasaki has averaged 12.7 outs per outing this year, grading out in the 9th percentile.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> A pitcher who averages more outs per start than his Outs prop may be a good bet to go over, and visa-versa for the under.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Shohei Ohtani &#8211; Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (-115\/-115)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Shohei Ohtani has been hot of late, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 95-mph to 98.4-mph in the last week.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Hitting the ball hard increases the chances of either a home run or the ball landing in fair territory for a hit before a fielder can get to it.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Los Angeles Dodgers &#8211;  2H Moneyline<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">The Los Angeles Dodgers bullpen profiles as the 5th-best in MLB, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game&#8217;s runs.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Atlanta Braves Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Spencer Schwellenbach &#8211; Over\/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+100\/-130)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Spencer Schwellenbach&#8217;s higher usage rate of his fastball this year (43.8 vs. 35.9% last year) is not ideal since they are typically much less effective than breaking or off-speed pitches.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Fastballs are the one easiest pitches to hit and generate few strikeouts, so a pitcher who begins to use his fastball more often will likely be less effective than he used to be.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Sean Murphy &#8211; Over\/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-155\/+120)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">When it comes to his home runs, Sean Murphy has had some very good luck since the start of last season.
