Colorado Rockies vs LA Dodgers Prediction

I’m on the over here. I lean towards the Dodgers here, as Los Angeles is the better team and they keep finding ways to deliver. However, Bobby Miller isn’t in a great environment for his first start in two months and I think this could be a tough spot for him. On the other side, Feltner has been brutal, with an ERA just under seven this season at home, and the Rockies’ bullpen has been hideous as well. I think this one is going to be high-scoring like the first two games of this series have been. Give me the over.
