With the 2021 National League Championship Series starting on Saturday, let’s look at the Dodgers opponents, the Atlanta Braves. First up, the arms.
Starting pitching
The Braves have three very good starting pitchers. They’re familiar with all three, as they’ve faced them in the postseason. Both Max Fried and Ian Anderson were on the Braves last season when the Dodgers faced them in the NLCS, with Charlie Morton being on the Rays when the Dodgers faced him in the World Series.
Just like LA, Atlanta currently has three starters, so Game 4 will be a bullpen game for them.
