Despite an up-and-down month of baseball, the Dodgers have made quick work of the bottom-feeding Nationals. As sportingview_27 breaks down his MLB betting picks, you should expect more of the same on Wednesday.
After dominating the first two games of the series, L.A. is a heavy favorite with odds shortened as low as -250 as it goes for the sweep this afternoon. The hosts piled up 13 hits last night, including long balls from Jason Heyward, Martinez, and Freeman.
The Dodgers’ schedule has been tilted toward road games in May which partly accounts for their up-and-down play, but playing at home has been a major trump card for L.A. this season, with 13 wins from the last 14 games at Dodger Stadium. Meanwhile, Washington is 12-15 on its travels. Though the hosts lost in Syndergaard’s last two starts, they picked up a W in the four prior games that he pitched. Plus, Thor has only walked two batters over his last three starts.
Ultimately, it’s a lot easier to trust the L.A. offense to deliver clutch hits than the visitors’ lineup, which has served up six hits in each game in this series but has fallen short of cashing in base-runners.
