Shane’s Free Pick

Morton is coming off a start where he wasn’t lights out, but he has been good overall sitting with an ERA of 3.36. The Braves also have one of the best offenses in baseball and they should give him some run support here and that is going to be the difference here. Back the Braves on the money line to cash.
