Fresh off sweeping the Red Sox who come from the city that’s usually an LA rivalry, Boston, LA. The Dodgers now face their baseball rivalry, welcoming the San Francisco Giants to town for a four game series. So the Dodgers win Sunday night. Have not announced their pitcher for Monday, but FanDuel at least has a line with minus 142 for the home team. Blake Snell is going for the Giants. And I think Snell’s a really interesting topic from a betting standpoint. Here’s a guy who won the Cy Young but was not signed by a team. So we got a late start in the spring training and he blamed that for his injuries and his poor start to the regular season. Cause he started the regular season, three earned, seven earned, five earned, four, three and three. So definitely touched up, then goes on the injured list, comes back and he’s lights out. Five shutout innings and then seven shutout innings allowing just one hit. And he had a no hitter I believe into the seventh or something like that.
So I’m a believer in I think Snell CY Young form and the last two starts after the All -Star break. I think he’s gonna be fresh now the Dodgers lineups really good. We saw a Ohtani hit one of the out of the stadium, but other guys can go long. So I don’t know if plus 120 125 is worth it for me to get involved. I would rather do some of the props because I do think Snell is legit and the where the market is now based on how we started the year. I think he’s undervalued. So I think there’s a opportunity here with the Giants with Snell I should say but I don’t want to play the money line price. I wouldn’t lay it with the Dodgers though. I think Snell can go deep so maybe total outs recorded things along those lines because I think he’s going to give them six, seven quality innings won’t get yanked if he gets up a couple long balls. So I think there’s value once those props get posted.
