The Dodgers are going to be favored because they’re the Dodgers, they’re at home, and Skubal is on the mound. I get it. However, the Brewers are legit contenders and are a tough team to turn down in the underdog role. It’s that simple. Also, Henderson has been strong in his own right with a 2.88 ERA and 0.91 WHIP. I’m going to side with the Brewers and the plus money every chance I get, as they’re one of the best teams in baseball.
