San Francisco Giants vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The Giants continue to lose games, have been horrible on the road, and now Webb has been shut down for the last week of the season. The Dodgers are finding good form at the right time, and Skubal is on the other side. Skubal has allowed 21 hits and 5 runs in his last 26 innings. The Dodgers have won 5 straight games Skubal has pitched. Only one way to go in this spot, and that’s for me to side with the Dodgers and the RL for max betting value.
