Atlanta Braves DFS SPIN
Austin Riley launched his 30th homer and worked a pair of walks Saturday as the Braves topped the Giants 7-3. It looked like it might not happen back at midseason, but Riley reached 30 homers for the third straight season. He has 14 homers in his last 36 games after totaling 16 in his first 92.
San Francisco Giants DFS SPIN
Thairo Estrada went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts as the Giants’ No. 2 hitter against the Braves on Saturday. Estrada hasn’t been too bad in hitting .280/.304/.387 in 18 games since coming off the IL, but the fantasy star of April and May hasn’t shown up, as he has just one steal and one homer in August. Dating back to before his IL stint, he has two steals in his last 29 games, compared to 17 in his first 59 games.

Braves vs. Giants MLB BETTING PREDICTION
I’m not going to overthink this one: Give me Atlanta. The pitching matchup is essentially a wash between Shuster and Beck, but that’s where the similarities end. Over the last two weeks, the Giants own a wRC+ of just 87, which ranks 24th in the league over that span. The Braves’ wRC+ is 115 over that same span, which ranks eighth. The Giants are also struggling from a bullpen standpoint, posting a 5.43 ERA and a 5.24 FIP across their last 61 1/3 innings, while the Braves have a 1.95 bullpen ERA and 2.78 FIP collectively over the last two weeks.
