    Unless you like laying heavy juice the Dodgers game tonight is unbettable

    On paper this game has a LA Dodger win written all over it.

    Kershaw is -220 right now on the money line.
    If you like risking over 2 to 1 on a single game, there's you're bet.
    I don't lay -220

    Even the run line is close to -150
    That's much to high for my tastes but it is what it is for a reason.

    Braves start a spot starter (Bryse Wilson) who really isn't that good.
    Not only that he's not an innings eater which means Atlanta will have to empty out the bullpen again like they did last night.

    Dodgers start Kershaw who needs no introduction.
    Like last's night starter, he's a lefty.
    A good one.
    Braves can't hit LHP very well.

    If you can find value in betting LA, there's your play.

    I have to pass.

    I have no confirmation on who is going to start (open) yet in tonight's Tampa game.
    Until so, I have no opinion.

    How important was yesterday's game for the Doyers?

    The series price went from +180 to -120, just from that game.

    I went with Dodgers Team total over 5.5 and F5 o4.5 both priced at -110. This game does have Dodgers written all over it but you're right I wouldn't lay that price with Kershaw. I do think they score a bunch of runs against Atlanta pitching tonight since its a bullpen game so that team total is appealing just like the F5 over is appealing at only 4.5.

    Lets just assume Dodgers win and tie the series up. Where do both teams go for game 5? Dodgers can easily turn to May to start game 5, or pitch Beuhler on short rest. Won't Braves have to go with Fried on short rest? They really miss Soroka....or Felix Hernandez lol. They just don't have the starting pitching depth that the Dodgers have.

    They have to pull out all the stops to win this game today.

    Wilson the Braves pitcher is a relief pitcher? He's a clear "opener". This is a bullpen game for them. Wilson has a 1.8 Whip or something. Ouch. He might only go 3 batters in this one.

    But when it was Braves 1-0 the series price was Dodgers -115 and even went to Braves slight favorite with uncertainty about Kershaw's back. Not really much of a change/difference to last time Braves had one game lead.

    OK, let's look at the total.

    It's nine flat.
    And the team totals are LAD 5.5 and ATL 3.5

    Let's break it down.
    One thing is almost a guarantee is that LA will not score 11 runs in the first inning again, and will not score 15 total runs again.

    First question, will the Braves score at least 4 runs tonight?
    If so, can the Dodgers score at least 5 runs?
    If so, then you would like the over 9 runs.
    If you are playing for a push at nine then why even bet the total in the first place?
    You bet to win, and to win you need 10.

    Atlanta doesn't score many runs against LHP.
    Kershaw is a better LHP than almost all of them.
    Kershaw will go six innings tonight.

    I will use BvP split stats if the sample size is big enough.
    BvP splits I use as an ancillary stat to support my argument.
    It's a Batter vs. Pitcher all time stat.
    I use it to gauge how each opposing batter has fared in the past against a certain starter.

    There is no Brave batter that has had any success vs. Kershaw in the past.
    Zero.

    The current Braves dugout is 41 for 193 vs. Kershaw (.212) with 2 home runs and an OBA of .243
    https://swishanalytics.com/optimus/m...-pitcher-stats

    Long story short Kershaw owns the Braves and I can't see Atlanta getting more than 2 runs max off of him.
    I say the Braves score three total runs.

    Do I think LA scores seven runs to make my over wager?
    No.

    I think LA wins 4-2

    I think the under is a good play here.

    I think the under is a good play here.

    193 at bats for a whole dugout against one pitcher isn't all that much history whatsoever. Most of the Braves batters have probably either never faced Kershaw or barely faced Kershaw. And they certainly have not faced him in high intensity like the playoffs.

    I like the under here too, but isn’t it way more logical to just play Braves team total under? Dodgers probably aren’t putting up 15 again, but would it shock anyone if they put up 8 runs against a shaky starter and a taxed pen?
