Rockies at Dodgers picks and predictions
Prediction
Dodgers 4, Rockies 2
Moneyline
It’s unlikely that the Dodgers (-300) will lose to the team with the worst record in MLB, but the price is too high on their ML.
PASS. Bet the run line and/or total instead.
Run line/Against the spread
Only 1 of the Dodgers’ last 12 games has resulted in them winning by 3 or more runs. They just haven’t been scoring enough lately, putting up 4 or fewer runs in 7 of their last 10 games.
The Rockies, meanwhile, showed signs of life by scoring 3 runs in the Monday opener after being shut out in 3 consecutive games at the San Diego Padres from Friday to Sunday.
BET ROCKIES +2.5 (-145).
Over/Under
The Under has hit in 3 straight games overall for the Rockies, while the Dodgers are 5-2 to the Under in their last 7 at home.
Colorado has scored 2 or fewer runs in 5 of its last 7 games, while LA has put up 3 or fewer in 3 of its last 4.
