00:04 Now we get to what, in my eyes, is
00:08 the main event of this slate.
00:11 As the Atlanta Braves make the trip to Coors Field.
00:15 They're a minus 245 favorite.
00:18 The total is 12.
00:20 By the way, the minus 245 number just moved to minus 255.
00:23 People can't stop betting this Atlanta team.
00:26 But will they bet their team total?
00:28 It might be all I care about.
00:30 This number, Donny, is one of the biggest
00:32 we've seen since doing this show.
00:34 Maybe the biggest.
00:35 7 and 1/2 for a team total on the Atlanta Braves
00:41 as they go to Coors.
00:43 Look, sometimes you're on the battlefield, Kevin.
00:45 I haven't been on the battlefield much lately here.
00:47 But all throughout time, Kevin, you hear this.
00:50 [HUMMING]
00:52 Chore!
00:53 I mean, that's-- good luck, Rockies, tonight.
00:56 I mean, let's just--
00:57 we don't even need to take a look at Gomber,
00:59 who's a left-handed pitcher.
01:00 If we can think him out of the equation
01:01 and just take a look at the lineup here
01:03 for the Atlanta Braves and against left-handed pitching
01:05 over the past 30 days.
01:06 You want to sound the alarms, the horns, DEFCON 4,
01:09 whatever it might be.
01:10 Look at these weighted on base percentages
01:12 that are going to meet Austin Gomber tonight here
01:14 and also meet him in Colorado.
01:16 375, 375, 516, 594, 427, 376, 469.
01:24 Like, the Braves are coming to take lives in this game
01:28 tonight.
01:28 Now, granted, having said that, they end up with three runs.
01:30 You get angry.
01:31 But it's one of those games where you say to yourself,
01:33 the Braves have nine full at-bats in Colorado.
01:36 What can't they do tonight?
01:38 I don't know.
01:38 But I'm certainly not betting against them,
01:40 even with that high number tonight.
01:42 It should be fascinating to watch this Braves offense.
01:44 And granted, if we just take a look at, like, RBI shots.
01:46 Like, Marcelo--
01:47 I was just going to say this.
01:49 A 571 ISO against left-handed pitching over the past 30 days.
01:55 It doesn't even make any sense.
01:57 And he's in cores?
01:58 Come on, now.
01:59 Hold on.
02:00 Can I-- let me--
02:01 on the RBI thing, Donnie.
02:03 Nine batters, nine batters.
02:06 How many do you think are a minus price
02:09 to record an RBI in this game?
02:12 I would probably say four.
02:15 Give people an idea, Donnie.
02:16 Usually, how many guys are a minus number
02:18 to record an RBI?
02:20 Yeah.
02:20 Zero.
02:21 And when you get to Colorado, maybe--
02:22 Eight of the nine batters, Donnie.
02:24 Eight of the nine are a minus number
02:26 to record an RBI in this game.
02:29 From the Atlanta Braves lineup.
02:30 Just to give you a little perspective on that, too.
02:31 I remember looking at the Padres when we went to Colorado.
02:33 It was like Machado minus 115, and everybody else
02:36 was plus money.
02:37 So that gives you an idea of what you can expect tonight.
02:40 Again, you just take every guy in Atlanta for two plus RBI.
02:43 You just go, OK, let me take all nine batters for a home run.
02:46 You get three of them.
02:47 It's like walking around with extra cash in your pocket
02:50 at that point.
02:52 There isn't a single Rocky that's a minus money
02:54 number to record an RBI.
02:56 It's truly-- to record a run--
02:59 I'm sorry, I have to stick on this.
03:01 Ronald Acuna Jr. is minus 300 to record a run.
03:05 What?
03:07 I've never seen that in my life.
03:09 I've never seen that in my life.
03:11 But you get it.
03:12 You get it through the circumstances.
