charlie the mort

Las Vegas - Atlanta is BLAZING! The Braves have won 11 of the last 12 and have old reliable Charlie Morton on the hill. It seems like Morton just gets better with age, especially at home. The 38 year old righty has had a few bumps on the road, but in the ATL, it has been all BAGELS and Ws. In his last three starts at Truist Park, Charlie has thrown 18 innings and HAS NOT allowed an earned run. Don't need my calculator to tell me his ERA is ZERO POINT ZERO ZERO! And if Houston's Yordan Alvarez (.295/.400/.612 with 31 homers and 77 RBIs) has to sit out, then Atlanta looks like a real solid investment.
