This is an 8* on LA
Pretty much everything we said in our Game 1 analysis rang true last night as the Dodgers opened the series with a 8-3 win. The Rays have gotten shockingly little offense in the postseason, outside of when they are hitting home runs. As mentioned in yesterday’s writeup, almost 72% of their runs scored in the playoffs have come via the long ball. While the Dodgers homered twice in Game 1, they also showed they can string runs together without hitting out of the park. Scoring eight times across three innings was more than enough in Game 1. Though Tony Gonsolin will start Game 2 for LA, this likely turns into a “bullpen game” for them. Though Gonsolin wasn’t very good against Atlanta in the NLCS, he does have a 2.74 ERA and 0.82 WHIP for the season. Blake Snell goes for Tampa Bay tonight. He isn’t likely to go as long as Tyler Glasnow did last night for Kevin Cash. An issue for Snell this postseason has been control of his fastball, which has led to 10 walks. An issue here is that the Dodgers have a .990 OPS in the playoffs vs. left-handers and they’ve hit a lot of homers. The Dodgers, who have won 42 of their last 55 games and are 17-4 vs. the AL this season, are simply the better team here. Play on LA DODGERS
