Braves vs. Brewers prediction

It has been a rough season for the Atlanta Braves, but the offense was able to break through in a big win on Monday night. Matt Olson is leading the team with 14 home runs, and the return of Ronald Acuna Jr. has been a huge boost for the team.

Grant Holmes is set to start on Tuesday night, and he is 3-4 with a 3.99 ERA so far this season. The Braves need another strong start for Holmes as they look to win this series outright.

Milwaukee will have Quinn Priester on the mound in this game, and he has pitched well this season. Priester comes into this game at 3-2 with a 3.88 ERA, and he needs to save the bullpen.
