LA Dodgers vs Colorado Rockies Prediction
I’m not running to the window to back Bobby Miller, who hasn’t been good in a short sample size, and he hasn’t pitched in two months due to a shoulder issue. However, it probably doesn’t matter who is on the mound here. Ryan Feltner has been dreadful in his own right, and even worse at Coors. Also, we saw the Dodgers score 7 runs in the ninth inning last night to steal a game from the Rockies. The Colorado Rockies are a joke of a baseball team. With that said, give me the Dodgers and the RL for max betting value.
