(953) Colorado Rockies at (954) Atlanta Braves
The Braves host the Rockies in Atlanta. The Braves are coming off losing three of four to the Phillies with their bats dying in the final two games. I'm hoping for a little bounce back tonight against a bad Rockies starter and an even worse bullpen. Kyle Freeland has a 7.34 ERA on the road this season and opposing hitters are batting .341 against him. He faced the Braves last month and allowed 3 runs in 3.2 innings, giving up two home runs. Freeland has given up all 14 home runs to right-handers and the Braves only have two left-handed batting regular starters in Matt Olson and Michael Harris. So they should be able to leave the yard at some point against him. Then there's always the Rockies bullpen that has the highest ERA and WHIP in all of baseball and has allowed the 5th most home runs this season.
