The weekend series between the Atlanta Braves and Milwaukee Brewers truly is a potential NLCS preview (yes, we know that the Los Angeles Dodgers exist), and it got off to an epic start with Chris Sale vs. Jacob Misiorowski. While that means that they won't headline tonight’s game, this series finale is featured on Sunday Night Baseball! Therefore, we’re here to hook you up with our best Braves vs. Brewers picks for tonight!

🔥 Braves vs. Brewers Predictions for MLB Sunday Night Baseball, 8/23

We mentioned the Dodgers above, and that is exactly who the Braves will be taking on after a rest day tomorrow. Speaking of LA, the entire rest of the league is on the diamond to close out the weekend, so go well beyond just Braves vs. Brewers predictions and check out our MLB expert picks for today.

That said, we know that this is the marquee matchup of the weekend in general, even if it wasn’t featured on Sunday Night Baseball. While we won’t see the aforementioned aces toeing the rubber, it doesn’t make the matchup any less meaningful. We’ll be making Braves vs. Brewers picks influenced by a starting pitching matchup of Martin Perez vs. Shane Drohan.

That makes it a lefty vs. lefty matchup, but while those guys are both southpaws, they have quite different styles. Perez relies on some off-speed stuff and is not known for K’s, while Drohan is a former reliever who has fit into the Milwaukee rotation quite well. With the stage set, let’s see where we’re locking in the best bet from our top Braves vs. Brewers predictions tonight.

 

 

 

🏅 Braves vs. Brewers Best Bet: Shane Drohan Over 4.5 K’s (Use Kalshi To Make Picks On Anything)

Admittedly, the Braves haven’t been striking out a ton this series, even having to deal with Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson the past two days. However, along with this being a former reliever, that factor could be playing into this line not being a strikeout higher. Regardless, we’re confident making this the focus of our Braves vs. Brewers predictions.

As we’ve seen with Milwaukee time and time again, they are able to either turn decent pitchers into great ones, give some a second life and sometimes, both. They grabbed Dustin May at the trade deadline from the division rival St. Louis Cardinals, who is coming off a rough start, which could have been one for Drohan.

This is also different from the past two games with Drohan being a lefty after facing back-to-back Brewers righties. Atlanta may not have a huge K rate for us to exploit, but they also rely heavily on their lefties like Matt Olson, Drake Baldwin and Michael Harris. With Drohan having better numbers vs. lefties, this is a spot for him to defy the odds and come through for our Braves vs. Brewers predictions.

Lock in Shane Drohan over 4.5 strikeouts after signing up at Kalshi prediction market.
