All eyes in the National League this season have been on the Dodgers and Giants, but one of either the Braves or Brewers will be playing in this NLCS as the two teams are set to face in the NLDS.

Anything can happen in sports, so is it crazy to think the Braves or Brewers could find themselves in the World Series?

Before we get to that conversation, the two teams need to duke it out in the NLDS.

The Brewers quietly put together an extremely strong season, finishing with a 95-67 record and winning the National League Central. Meanwhile, the Braves will find themselves in the playoffs, but it’s largely due to them competing in the weakest division in baseball, the NL East.

Atlanta finished with an 88-73 record which is the worst record among all MLB playoff teams and also worse than two teams in the American League who missed the postseason all together, the Blue Jays (91-71) and Mariners (90-72).

Here are the odds to win the NLDS via WynnBET Sportsbook.

Braves vs Brewers Odds

  • Braves +130
  • Brewers -140

The Braves are sizable underdogs to the Brewers in the series, and they also share the longest odds to win the World Series among all division winners at +1500. The Brewers, on the other hand, hold the fourth shortest odds to win the Fall Classic at +700.

If you hold value in recent history, than the Braves could be the bet to make at +130 (bet $100 to profit $130). The two teams met six times in the 2021 season and hold an even 3-3 record against each other.

The offensive advantage goes to the Braves. They rank 12th in the Majors in OPS (.760) dating back to August 1st. The pitching advantage also leans towards the Braves as they rank 3rd in team ERA (3.42) dating back to the beginning of August while Milwaukee ranks 6th (3.76).

Don’t be fooled by their respective records, the Braves are the value bet to make at +130.

Game 1 is set to take place on Friday, October 8th at 4:37pm et.
