Best bets for Monday, Aug. 31
Giants vs. Braves
The Atlanta Braves will pursue their eighth consecutive win Monday in a makeup game against the San Francisco Giants. San Francisco is trying to avoid finishing with the worst record in MLB. The Giants are 56-81, with only three teams recording fewer victories.
Atlanta holds a five-game lead over the Philadelphia Phillies in the NL East but had lost five of six games before beginning its current winning streak. The Braves enter the matchup after sweeping the Dodgers and Rockies. Bryce Elder (8-7, 3.95 ERA) is scheduled to face Anthony Molina (1-0, 2.89 ERA) in a matchup between right-handed pitchers.
The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, gives Atlanta a 67% win probability and assigns a B grade to the Under 9 runs, which hits 52.5% of the time.
Brewers vs. Cubs
The Chicago Cubs trail the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central, but they can gain ground Monday when the teams begin a three-game series. Left-hander Kyle Harrison (10-3, 2.79 ERA) is scheduled to start for the Brewers, who own an eight-game division lead.
Chicago is tied for the top NL wild-card position and, along with the Phillies, holds a 4.5-game lead in the wild-card standings. The Cubs will send right-hander Clay Holmes (5-6, 2.26 ERA) to the mound as they look to end a difficult stretch. Chicago has lost seven of its past 10 games.
The SportsLine model gives Milwaukee a 53% win probability, while Chicago is covering the +1.5 run line in 64% of simulations.
