Atlanta clobbered the Marlins 11-2 last night, blowing the doors off with nine runs in the ninth. The Marlins wasted a solid outing from Sandy Alcantara and were forced to use six relievers in the last two innings. Their bullpen ranks 21st in baseball with a 4.20 ERA, and will be taxed in this early start, with Ryan Gusto scheduled to start. Gusto has one win against lowly Washington in his last four starts, but he allowed 16 earned runs in the three losses. The Braves have scored 6.1 runs per game over their last 10, going 6-4, including 3-1 on the road. Left-hander Joey Wentz will start for Atlanta, and he held the Marlins to one run on four hits when these teams met earlier this month, a 7-1 Atlanta win. The Braves are 25-18 in divisional games this season, and they've won five-straight day games, outscoring opponents 27-11. Take Atlanta on the moneyline.
