Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

I’m on the Dodgers here. I just think that Ohtani is the better starting option by a mile and while the Diamondbacks have a lot of upside catching prices like these going against the name brand of the Dodgers, sometimes it’s just that the Dodgers are that good and Ohtani has been every bit as good as expected on the mound this season. In the end I think Ohtani’s just too much for Gallen to try to match so give me the Dodgers.
