Picks for 8/28/25
MLB
6:45 PM EST
Rotation # 907-908
Braves/Phillies Over 9.5 runs (win)
Quantrill/Nola
Tonight’s matchup showcases two struggling pitchers. Braves starter Cal Quantrill has been a below-average pitcher for a few years now, allowing big hits and lacking strikeout power. Aaron Nola has struggled this year and is trying to find his game after returning from injury. It’s hard to trust either starter tonight. The Braves have been patient at the plate the last few weeks, as no other team has drawn more walks since the All-Star break. Tonight’s hitting conditions will be ideal with the wind blowing out. Philadelphia is coming off an embarrassing performance against the Mets and must get back on track before the division lead shrinks even more. The Phillies are dealing with bullpen injuries and poor play. Look for both offenses to do enough to make it a higher-scoring game. Take the Over.
