Colorado Rockies vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 9/28/24, 4:39 PM  by Carlos Zabala in MLB Picks

7 of the Dodgers' last 10 games have ended in a Game Total OVER, and 6 of the last 10 games between the Dodgers and Rockies have as well. Such was the case for the first game of the final series of the season for both teams.

The Game Total for Game 2 will be set at 11.5 by betting sites, that's after the Dodgers' offensive prowess on display in Friday's game where they scored 11 runs, 15 hits, 3 HRs, and there were 4 errors between the two teams.

The Rockies failed to score 5 runs, when they have generally done quite well as they have a 40-21 record in those cases. Tovar led the Rockies with 267 AVG, 45 doubles, three triples and an impressive 25 HRs. While veteran Blackmon found some offensive rhythm as the season ends, going 12-for-34 with 7 RBIs in the last 10 games.

Yamamoto is Roberts' starting pitcher. The Japanese has already faced the Rockies twice in his first year, and has a 1-0 record but a high ERA of 5.00.

The Rockies' starting pitcher is Senzatela, who was absent all year in what was a very sensitive loss for the team, and this will be his second start after undergoing Tommy John surgery. After his first start he said he feels pretty good, that his arm works and that he was able to induce a lot of ground balls.
