The Arizona Diamondbacks will limp into SunTrust Park tonight for a 3-game set against the Atlanta Braves. Arizona lost their last two games to the Colorado Rockies and were outscored, 24-3. Zack Godley will be called upon tonight to right the ship. Godley is 10-6, with a 4.80 ERA, a 1.56 WHIP, and he had better go deep in the game because the Diamondbacks bullpen was tagged for 14 runs on Wednesday and 3 yesterday. Atlanta counters with Aníbal Sánchez. Sánchez is 4-2, with a 2.72 ERA, and a 1.04 WHIP. The Braves are 7-2 in his last 9 starts and they are 6-1 at home against a team with a winning record. The Snakes are 2-5 in their last 7 meetings with the Braves and 8-20 in their last 28 in Atlanta. I like the home team in this situation.
TONIGHT’S PICK: ATLANTA BRAVES
