The Atlanta Braves can clinch the National League East when they take on the Miami Marlins on Tuesday at loanDepot park. The Braves (100-60) lead the New York Mets (98-61) by 1.5 games and need either a win over the Marlins or a Mets loss to the Nationals to clinch the division. Atlanta is a -165 favorite in the latest Braves vs. Marlins odds from Caesars Sportsbook, while Miami is a +140 underdog. The over/under for runs scored is 7.5.

First pitch is set for 6:40 p.m. ET from Miami. The game is one of 18 on the MLB schedule for Tuesday. Elsewhere in the majors, the Mets and Nationals play a doubleheader in Queens, N.Y., and Yankees slugger Aaron Judge gets two games against the Rangers to break the American League single-season home run record.

The model, which ran 10,000 simulations on each of Tuesday's games, likes Milwaukee (+100) to knock off Arizona. The Brewers (85-75) have the sixth best home record (45-34) in the NL, while the Diamondbacks (73-87) have the fifth worst road record (33-46) in the league. Milwaukee won the first game of the three-game series on Monday, 6-5 in 10 innings.

Hunter Renfroe is swinging a hot bat for the Brewers. Over his last three games the 30-year-old outfielder is 6-for-13 (.462 batting average) at the plate with a 1.231 OPS, a homer and two RBI. In Monday's win over Arizona, he homered in a three-run ninth and then singled in the game-winning run in the 10th. See who else to back right here.
