San Diego @ Atlanta
Jurrjens is 2-0 with a 1.84 ERA in four home starts this season.
Since his return from the DL, Jurrjens is 2-0 with a 2.61 ERA.
The Braves’ 32-12 home mark is the best in the majors, one game ahead of Detroit (32-14), 1.5 games ahead of St. Louis (32-15) and two games ahead of the Yankees (30-14).
The Braves are 27-9 in their last 36 home games.
LeBlanc, however, has found success hard to come by on the road and overall since a hot start to his season.
He started the season 2-0 with a 1.61 ERA in his first five starts, but he’s only 2-7 with a 4.06 ERA in his last 11 starts.
LeBlanc is 2-3 with a 5.12 in six road starts this season.
LeBlanc’s last two road starts haven’t made for pretty reading. He allowed four runs and 11 hits, including two homers, in 5.1 IP in a 5-3 loss at Tampa Bay on June 24, and in his last start, he allowed four runs and nine hits, including three homers, in 5.2 IP in a 4-2 loss at Colorado.
LeBlanc is 1-6 in his last seven starts against teams who are currently over .500, and overall, he’s 2-6 with a 3.35 ERA in 10 starts this season vs. teams currently over .500.
The Padres were 5-0 in LeBlanc’s first five starts, but they’re only 4-7 in his last 11 starts.
Atlanta is 7-1 in their last eight games against a team with a winning record, 36-16 in their last 52 as a favorite, 4-1 in Jurrjens last five starts against a team with a winning record, and 41-20 in their last 61 overall. San Diego is 8-2 in their last 10 following an off day, 2-5 in their last seven with a winning record, 1-5 in LeBlanc's last six starts against a team with a winning record, and 5-2 in their last seven following a win. San Diego is 2-7 in their last nine games in Atlanta.

-1.5 RL over LA Angels (medium play)
(I’ll take a hot offense with a team with probably the best record in baseball.)
The Angels are 1-6 in the last 7 road games versus a right hander, 1-7 in the last 8 road games and 8-2 in O’Sullivan’s last 10 starts. New York is 45-13 in the past 58 games versus a right hander, 4-1 in the last 5 versus a team with a winning record and 16-5 in Hughes’ last 21 home starts.
