Mets vs. Braves Prediction
The Mets scrapped across enough runs against Max Fried and Atlanta’s bullpen to take Game 1 of their series against the Braves yesterday. Will the Braves even the series with a win tonight at 7:20 p.m. ET or is there a better play on the board?

New York Mets DFS SPIN
Travis Jankowski went 0-for-2 with a walk on Monday in his return to the Mets’ lineup. Jankowski started in right field and was on-base twice courtesy of a walk and a hit by pitch in the Mets’ narrow win over the Braves. The 31-year-old outfielder was back in the Mets’ lineup after missing nearly seven weeks due to surgery to repair a fractured left hand. He’s expected to operate as a bench outfielder for New York over the last few months of the 2022 campaign.
Atlanta Braves DFS SPIN
Austin Riley homered on Monday in a loss to the Mets. Riley got the Braves on the board with a solo shot off Max Scherzer in the seventh. It would be the only run of the game for Atlanta in series-opening loss. Riley has homered 24 times in 2022, and the RBI is the 57th. He’s followed up his breakout campaign of 2021 quite nicely.
