I’ll trust the road team in this divisional matchup on Thursday.
Los Angeles comes into the contest on fire, having won eight of its last 10 games.
Also, the Dodgers have crushed Arizona starter Brandon Pfaadt. L.A. has a batting average of .329 in 79 at-bats against the Diamondbacks’ pitcher.
Meanwhile, Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto has been outstanding this season, posting an ERA of 0.90, which is the best in baseball.
[subheader sizedown=”true” center=”false” text=” Mookie Betts 2+ Total Bases” logo1url=”https://images.actionnetwork.com/blog/2023/08/2023-mlb-logo-los-angeles-dodgers.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/odds/los-angeles-dodgers” link1follow=“false”][/subheader]
We’re getting substantial value on this prop at plus money.
The former All-Star, Mookie Betts, has strong numbers against Pfaadt (4-for-11), including one extra-base hit.
Betts is in an outstanding position to exceed this prop on Thursday and help us cash this parlay.
