Milwaukee @ Atlanta picks

Milwaukee now ranks in the Top 4 in the league in runs per game, hits per game, batting average, and stolen bases. On the other hand, the Atlanta Braves rank in the bottom half of the league in each of those four categories. The clear hitting advantage goes to the Brewers, but they also boast the pitching edge. The Braves hand the ball to right-hander Erick Fedde, who has struggled mightily this season.

I'm slowly becoming a Quinn Priester believer. He's not overpowering, but he gets the job done, and his peripherals don't suggest a major course correction is looming. Meanwhile, the Braves remain a disaster and must rely on Erick Fedde on Monday. Fedde's 5.33 ERA is sixth-worst among SPs who have logged at least 100 innings this season, and his 14.2 K% is third-lowest and 10.5 BB% is fourth-highest. So, he doesn't miss bats AND he issues too many free passes. A recipe for disaster against Milwaukee.
