10* LA Dodgers (3:10 ET): This number (ML) opened far too low and sharp bettors (like myself!) have rightfully pounced on it. I should not have to tell you that the Dodgers are the best team in baseball this year. Just about every metric reinforces that claim. They have the best record (38-15) and by far the best run differential (+122). When looking at the run differential, be aware that only a handful of teams LY (in a full 162-game season) outscored their opponents by that margin. This is a dominant team winning by more than two full runs per game right now!

You need not tell Colorado about the Dodgers. They’ve lost three in a row to them this weekend at Coors Field, every loss coming by 5+ runs. The L2 seasons have seen the Rockies go 6-22 vs. Dodger Blue. They are 13-35 L48 head to head matchups. Making matters worse, the Rockies have dropped 9 of 11 overall. They’ve scored more than three runs just three times in that stretch. That’s even with the L8 games all taking place here at Coors Field!

Not that LA needs more of an advantage, but today they have Tony Gonsolin on the mound. In six starts, Gonsolin has a 0.88 ERA and 0.685 WHIP. Those are sick numbers. By the way, the Dodgers have now won five in a row overall. They are the last opponent Rockies starter Antonio Senzatela wanted to see. Though Senzatela has pitched well this year (even here at home!), he has a 6.50 ERA in nine career appearances vs. LA. The Dodgers are 71-31 in day games the L3 seasons including 10-1 this year. This shapes up as a VERY lopsided affair. 10* LA Dodgers
