Colorado Rockies vs LA Dodgers Prediction

I have no idea who the LA Dodgers are throwing out there, but it probably doesn’t matter. The Dodgers are on a heater offensively, and now they face Kyle Freeland, who has been a disaster on the road. Current Dodgers have a .263 batting average, .330 on-base percentage, and 10 homers against Freeland in 209 at bats. I’m not stepping in front of the Dodgers right now, and I’m certainly not doing it to back the Rockies. Give me the Dodgers and the RL for max betting value.
