Total: 8.00 | -107.00 Over
Result: Win
Anytime I see a total of less than nine on a Dodgers game, I think Over.
This Detroit-LA game isn't a pitching matchup of Mickey Lolich versus Sandy Koufax. It's Eduardo Rodriguez against Lance Lynn and both offenses are hot.
The Tigers are averaging 6.1 runs in their last six games. They've scored at least 5 runs in five of these games. The Tigers have gotten healthy and some of their young, promising offensive talent is developing.
Lynn is just an innings-eater mercenary at this late stage of his career. He's regressed since he first came to the Dodgers with a 9.37 ERA in his last three starts. Oh, yeah, he also has surrendered the most homers in the league at 41.
Rodriguez hasn't been sharp either, giving up seven earned runs in his last two starts spanning 11 1/3 innings. Rodriguez has permitted eight hits and a staggering nine walks during this time frame.
The Dodgers rank second in the majors in runs, homers and OPS. If you discount their one-run game against Blake Snell, the Dodgers are averaging 7.5 runs in their last nine games.
