Rockies vs Dodgers Prediction

We’ve been cashing in on the Dodgers up to this point despite me looking for chances to fade them. These inflated lines will catch up to the Dodgers at some point. I’m going to start with this game. Seeing the Dodgers in the -300 territory on the road is nuts. This is Coors Field, where anything can happen. Glasnow has also been hittable with his 4.00 ERA. Sugano has pitched 16.2 innings and has a 2.16 ERA and 0.78 WHIP. Those three games came against contenders in the Padres, Phillies, and Blue Jays. You’re giving me 2.5 times my money with the home team. I’ll take a shot in the dark with the Rockies.
