Atlanta Braves vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Dan Angell in MLB Picks
The Atlanta Braves (20-10 SU, 15-15 ATS) meet the Los Angeles Dodgers (21-13 SU, 16-18 ATS) in a matchup of National League powerhouses that have won with both offense and defense. Between the two of them, they allow roughly 7.6 runs per game, while they score roughly 10.6 runs per game combined. Both teams rank in the top eight in the majors in runs scored and runs prevented, and both can adjust to win a game however they need to do it that day.
In this matchup, the winning team has often needed to win a tight one. Out of the past 10 meetings, five of them have been decided by two runs or less. The teams’ first meeting of 2024 proved true to form, with the Dodgers getting the win in extra innings after the Braves tied the score late in the contest. There’s a reason these teams are usually near the top of the National League.

Our Atlanta Braves vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
There's another reason to lean hard into the under in this matchup: the pitchers. Tyler Glasnow has mostly been lights out in his starts this season, not giving up more than two runs in six of his seven starts. Other than one bad outing against Washington, he's been one of the most reliable pitchers in the NL. Bryce Elder struggled in the spring and started the year at Triple-A Gwinnett, but he seems to have gotten the message. Since that early hiccup, he's earned a 1.50 ERA in two major league starts.
The Braves keep hitting their unders in part because they boast the second-best bullpen in the National League. As long as Atlanta gets anything close to a decent effort from its starter and doesn't go over the top at the plate, the under is always in play for the Braves. With Glasnow on the mound, the Braves' offense going crazy shouldn't be a worry. Our prediction for Atlanta vs. Los Angeles is Under 8.5 Runs.
