McKenzie Gore of the Washington Nationals has displayed very good form over his last 3 starts with a 2.00 ERA/0.89 WHIP while striking out 19 and walking just 2 in 18.0 innings pitched. one of those starts came against Atlanta when he allowed just 1 earned run on 7 hits in 6.0 innings of work. As a matter of fact, Gore has a shiny 2.20 ERA in 3 starts versus Atlanta in 2024.

Reynaldo Lopez of the Atlanta Braves has exhibited excellent form over his last 5 starts while compiling a 1.73 ERA/1.00 WHIP. Lopez has been solid in 2 starts versus Washington this season with a 2.25 ERA/1.08 WHIP during 12.0 innings pitched. The Atlanta bullpen has been lights out over their previous 7 games with a terrific staff 1.08 ERA.

Give me this game to go under the total.
