⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public slightly favors Atlanta ML but money splits show sharp action heavier on Braves (59%), diverging from dog-heavy spread bets where sim backs Arizona cover. Fade public spread consensus justified by EV math and recent margins; follow sharps on ML. Game projects high-scoring (avg 10 runs) with both offenses exploiting thin bullpens amid early-season IL pitchers.
