Colorado Rockies vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
I’m on the Dodgers -1.5 in this one. I know Landon Knack hasn’t been the most reliable of options for the Dodgers early on this season, but he’s faced some solid lineups early on this season and I think he catches a bit of a break here against a Rockies team that would probably have a hard time hitting themselves out of a wet paper bag right now. Even if the Rockies got to Knack, the Dodgers have so much power and potency in their lineup, and the Dodgers also have a strong history of getting to Ryan Feltner early and often. I think the Dodgers rout the Rockies once again here, so give me Los Angeles -1.5.
