THE PROFESSOR’S MLB UPPER-DECK BLOWOUT
(MLB) LA Dodgers vs. Arizona,
Point Spread: -1.50 | -123.00 LA Dodgers (Away)
Result: Loss
The Dodgers have won four of their last five games and took game one of their series with the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-0. The Diamondbacks have lost three of their last four games and have not won a series this season and that got a little more difficult after dropping game one to the Dodgers. The Dodgers won 16 of 19 last season and 24 of the last 29 meetings overall.
As a team, the Dodgers lead the league with a team ERA of 2.22 ERA bullpen ERA of 2.07. They will hand the ball over in game 2 to Tony Gonsolin. In his last outing, he went six scoreless innings giving up three hits in picking up the win. He is 1-0 with a 0.69 ERA in three starts this season. Arizona's pitching staff has been better than expected, posting a team ERA of 3.36 ERA and a bullpen ERA of 4.39. Zach Davies is coming off an outing in which he allowed two runs on two hits in five innings against the Nationals. On the season, he is 1-1 with a 5.02 ERA in three starts.

The Dodgers have the highest-scoring offense in the Majors to go along with the best pitching. I have had a lot of success playing the Dodgers on the run-line when their price is very high so will keep riding it until it fails.

Play on the LA Dodgers minus 1.5 runs. This is a 7* play.
