Prediction

Given Jonathan India's recent form and the struggles of Nick Martinez, the over on India's prop bets looks promising. India's ability to get on base and his power makes the "Batter Hits Over 0.5" a strong pick. Additionally, with the Braves' bullpen issues, the "Batter Total Bases Over 1.5" at +155 provides good value.
