MLB Betting Trends
Los Angeles
The Dodgers are 8-3 in thelr last 11 Friday games. The under is 9-5 in the last 14 Los Angeles games overall.
Colorado
The Rockies are 7-1 in their last eight Friday games. Colorado is 2-8 in its last 10 games overall.
Prediction:
Gray has been fantastic since a brief trip to the minors, but he runs into an excellent Dodgers offense that pounded the ball around the yard last night. Maeda should get adequate run support and is a good enough pitcher that he can slow down a Rockies team that has been struggling all around lately. I'm taking the Dodgers to win again tonight.
