The price is low enough to back what is shaping up to be the best team in baseball.

The Dodgers are in a tough travel spot and inferior to the Cubs in all three major categories - offense, defense and starting pitcher with lefty Alex Wood facing Jason Hammel.

Wood averages less than six innings per start. He's rusty, too, having not pitched in the last nine days because of a triceps injury. LA is 1-6 in Wood's last seven road starts. The Dodgers' bullpen is a disaster area with the exception of closer Kenley Jansen.

The Cubs are 7-1 in Hammel's last eight starts and 8-2 the past 10 times they've faced a southpaw.
