Los Angeles Dodgers vs San Francisco Giants Prediction
Wilkinson has been solid through 24.2 innings with a 3.65 ERA and 1.01 WHIP, but it’s a small sample size, and he pitches for the Giants, a team that checked out ages ago. The Dodgers keep rolling and finding their playoff form, and Snell has a 1.86 ERA and 1.09 WHIP through 38.2 innings. Snell has also owned the Giants throughout his career. There’s only one way to go in this spot, and that’s for me to side with the Dodgers and the RL to shave down the price.
