Kansas City at Atlanta

March 28, 2026
img7:15 PM Eastern

Atlanta got off to a quick start behind Chris Sale, as the Braves won 6-0 in the first game of this series, and this season. Kansas City will try to regroup in game 2 behind Michael Wacha. Wacha went 10-13 last season, but did have a strong 3.86 ERA and deserved a better fate. The Braves look to open 2-0 behind Reynaldo Lopez. It has been over a year since Lopez started a game, and Wacha has had success vs. the NL East, where he is 23-16, and +4.8 units of profit. I like Kansas City tonight.

1.5 units on Kansas City +135 (moneyline) (risk 1.5 to return 3.53)
