Expert picks & predictions for tonight’s game between the Rockies and the Dodgers​

Rotoworld Best Bet​

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes Bobby Miller to go Under 5.5 strikeouts versus Colorado:​


"Bobby Miller is making his first start of the season tonight and while the Rockies are a more than acceptable opponent, I like the Under 5.5 strikeouts at -125 odds. Miller does not have an outs prop for tonight, which means 5.0 innings or going more than two times through the order is unlikely. Even when Miller went 5.0-plus innings last year, he was 4-2 to the Under on this number and 10-3 to the Under overall. I'd go down to 4.5 for +110 or better if that pops up before first pitch."
