Los Angeles Dodgers vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction
The Pirates have been badly outplayed over their last 4 games, where they’ve scored 3 or fewer runs. The Dodgers are the Dodgers, an insanely talented team that’s inflated in the market. With that said, it’s impossible to bet against the Dodgers here with Ohtani on the mound. Through 61 innings, Ohtani has a 0.74 ERA and 0.79 WHIP. You couldn’t do that in a video game. Jones has just 9.1 innings under his belt this season. If the Pirates are having issues scoring as it is, this won’t be a game to break out of the slump. Give me the Dodgers and the RL for max betting value.
