Your Sunday freebie is the Braves on the Run Line over the Marlins.
After losing on Friday to Miami, 2-0, Atlanta came back strong last night with an 8-1 pasting of Miami, and today they will close out this home stand with a win by at least 2 runs over the Fish.
The Braves stand at 4-2 in the season series against the Marlins this year, and 3 of the 4 wins have come by 2 runs or better.
Julio Teheran has settled into a very nice groove, as he has won each of his last 3 starts, and sports an ERA under 2 in that stretch.
Miami sends Wei-Yin Chen who is winless over his last 3 starts at 0-2 and he does sport an ERA over 10 over his last 16-plus innings worked.
The Marlins are just 3-8 their last 11 played in Atlanta, so take the Bravos on the Run Line to dispatch them easily this Sunday afternoon.

Sunday's comp play is on the Jets of Winnipeg to stay alive in their best-of-seven series against the Golden Knights.
Vegas has skated to 3 straight series wins as they look to close things out tonight, but I have a feeling the Jets have one final stand left in them - especially on their home ice.
Winnipeg is 37-10-2 on their home ice this season, and the host in the series has won 5 of the 7 career showdowns.
Connor Hellebuyck protects his net a little better this afternoon, and the Jets live to play one more game in Sin City on Tuesday night.
Take the Jets.

A's vs. Blue Jays
A's-102
The reeling Toronto Blue Jays have lost six of their last seven overall and today they'll hand the ball to the struggling Joe Biagini (0-2, 7.98 ERA). This will be his fourth start this season and he has been roughed up badly in his last two starts, allowing 10 runs on 14 hits through just nine innings of work. In 21 career starts in the majors, Biagini is 2-14 with a 6.05 ERA and the Blue Jays are 3-14 in his last 17 starts.
The A's turn to Daniel Mengden (3-4, 3.75 ERA) who had a poor start to the season, but he is is 3-2 with a 3.75 ERA in his past seven starts (5-2 Oakland record). Athletics are 5-1 in Mengden's last six road starts.
Free pick on Oakland Athletics.
