A duel between a veteran pitcher and a young one will take place in Atlanta when the Braves and Rockies face their pitchers Morton and Blalock, both with ERAs over 4.00. Although it is also a duel of contrast between the worst Bullpen in MLB with an ERA of 5.52 and the pitching in the majors that allows the fewest runs per game, only 3.8 per game.

Even though this Braves offense pales in comparison to the 2023 Braves offense, it is true that the HRs are still coming, as they are 4th in MLB 180, and on Wednesday they will face the Rockies pitching that is the 2nd that has allowed the most HRs in MLB. Olson has had an awakening of his bat, which was needed more than ever, and is batting 13-for-40 with 6 doubles and 4 HRs in the last 10 games.

Morton has strong numbers against the Rockies in his long career, going 6-2 with a 3.81 ERA. Closer Iglesias has also been solid, winning the reliever of the month award.

Only two teams have a worse winning percentage as underdogs and on the road in MLB than the Rockies, who have a 19-51 record in that arena.

Our Colorado Rockies vs Atlanta Braves Prediction

In Wednesday's game, unlike Game 1, there are likely to be HRs. The Rockies' Blalock is coming off one HR allowance in his last two starts, specifically in the last one where he couldn't pitch more than four innings against the Marlins at Corrs Field, the Braves' HR production is even better at home where they average 1.4 per game. The Braves' starting pitching has been quite effective recently, with an excellent ERA of 2.15 in the last 10 games. Our prediction for Braves vs Rockies is: Braves -1.5, -133 at FanDuel.
