The LA Dodgers (87-61) take on the Atlanta Braves (81-67) on Sunday Night Baseball in Game 3 of a 4-game series at Truist Park at 7:10 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s MLB odds around the Dodgers vs. Braves chances and make our expert MLB predictions for the best bets.

Season Series: Dodgers Lead 3-2

The Dodgers have lost the first two games of the series, including a laughable 10-1 loss on Saturday. The Braves dazzled RHP Jack Flaherty for 4 ER over 3 IP and threw 6 more on the bullpen. OF Mookie Betts had a hit and the only RBI in the game. The Dodgers have lost 4 of 5 and are 3½ games ahead of the San Diego Padres.

The Braves have scored 6+ runs in 3 of the 4 games and have scored 29 runs in that series. 1B Matt Olson is on fire right now. He went 2-for-5 with 4 RBI Saturday and has 7 RBI in a 5-game hitting streak. The Braves hold onto the final Wild Card spot with the New York Mets hot on their heels.

Dodgers at Braves Picks and Predictions

Prediction

Braves 6, Dodgers 4

Moneyline

Simply put, Buehler has not been good since returning from Tommy John surgery. He is 0-2 with a 6.97 ERA in his last 7 starts. The Braves bats are hot and I expect them to stay that way.

Take the BRAVERIES -115.

Run line/Against the spread

Let’s focus on SS Orlando Arcia here. He went 1-for-3 with 3 RBIs Saturday and has hit Buehler very well. He is 6-for-11 with a double and 2 homers lifetime against him. Take ORLANDO ARCIA MORE THAN 1.5 H+R+RBIs (+100).

Over/Under

It’s going to be 76 degrees with a 14 mph wind from left to right. The Over narrowly missed Friday and sailed past the finish line on Saturday. With Buehler allowing so many runs, I think the MORE THAN 9 (+100).
