The Rockies are playing some decent ball lately and Freeland has allowed just 22 hits and nine runs in his last 23 innings. The Rockies are worth consideration here. However, the Dodgers are the one of the hottest teams in baseball right now, winning 12 of their last 13 games and losing just twice since August 2. It’s hard to step in front of the Dodgers right now. Give me the Dodgers and the RL for max betting value.
