Nationals vs. Braves Betting Pick, DFS Plays - April 27: Fister 1.23 ERA vs. Atlanta
Gambling911.com has your Nationals vs. Braves series betting pick and a daily fantasy play for April 27.
Best Bets – UNDER 7
Best DFS Picks – Doug Fister $7.6K
PITCHING MATCHUP: Nationals RH Doug Fister (1-0, 2.37 ERA) vs. Braves LH Eric Stults (0-1, 4.50)
Betting Line – Braves +120, Nationals -132, Total 7
The last five games of this series played in Atlanta have gone UNDER 7. The Nationals are 4-10 in Atlanta but this trend should change this evening with Fister taking to the mound.
Fister allowed five runs for only the third time in 28 starts with Washington his last time out so expect this ace to be in top form this evening, especially against an Atlanta team for whom he has a 1.23 ERA against with 13 hits allowed in 22 innings.
The batters who have had the best success against Stults are mainly in a slump right now including the likes of Danny Espinosa (3-for-7 with a homer against Stults), Jayson Werth and Reed Johnson.
On the surface, this does not look like a fantasy-friendly matchup unless you plan on taking Fister, who is priced at $7.6K and has value tonight.
