Braves vs Rockies
Thin air, thick bats—one side finally catches its breath.

Braves (12-15) VS Rockies (4-23)
29 Apr 2025 | 8:40 PM ET | Coors Field, Denver

Atlanta heads to Denver finally starting to rebound from their horrid start, while Colorado continues to spiral with a seven-game losing skid, setting up a clear mismatch. Despite missing a few key pieces, the Braves still have the edge with a proven starter who’s historically thrived at Coors Field and a lineup that’s heating up at the right time. Colorado, meanwhile, remains short-handed and will turn to a rookie making his debut against one of baseball’s most dangerous offenses. With Atlanta pushing to climb back into the race and the Rockies already buried early in the standings, laying the chalk feels justified, even factoring in the usual Coors Field unpredictability.
When one team’s firing up the ladder and the other’s just trying to stop the bleeding, you don’t overthink it—back the better squad and ride the wave.

Atlanta enters Coors Field on huge uptick in form, while Colorado’s skid has stretched to seven, setting up a matchup where both teams look to find traction at one of baseball’s most hitter-friendly parks. The Braves are short a few key arms and their biggest star, but the core of the lineup remains potent and has a strong track record against this opponent. Colorado’s offense has been quiet overall, but they’ll face a young with shaky command, offering a potential breakout spot. With both bullpens struggling and early-season stakes still low, the conditions are right for runs to pile up quickly. The Over 10.5 at –110 grades out as a solid B, offering good potential on a well-matched number.
Even with the chillier April air, it’s hard to bet against fireworks when shaky pitching meets thin relief in Coors—this one has all the ingredients for a scorefest.

Atlanta rolls into Denver looking to build on a big turn around in form from the start of the season, while Colorado has the worst record in the league, and continue to sink deeper with a 9-1 run. The difference in form is stark, and injuries only widen the gap—Atlanta is missing a key starter but counters with one of the league’s top strikeout arms, while Colorado remains without key contributors in both the lineup and bullpen. Coors Field tends to favor power bats, and Atlanta’s right-handed sluggers have consistently delivered in this environment. With Colorado’s rotation struggling to keep games tight, laying the run and a half feels like a smart call. The odds don’t scream value, but the matchup earns a B+ for confidence and likelihood.
Given the direction these teams are heading and the way the ball flies in Denver, trusting Atlanta to win comfortably feels like the right move—even if you’re paying a little to do it.
