BIG MONDAY
- Thread starter RAYMOND
- Start date
WASHINGTON (Strasburg) +170 over LA DODGERS (Kershaw)
It's always difficult to go against Clayton Kershaw,
regardless of price, but taking +170 with a pitcher
who has led his team to wins in 13 of his 14 starts
isn't so hard. Stephen Strasburg has been terrific
in 2016 (+$1110, 2.90 ERA) and he can match Kershaw
in holding an offense in check, and the Dodgers are
still big money-burners in night games this season
(-$945). Washington has a 7-2 record vs. lefties
on the road (+$450, averaging 5.3 runs per game)
and they've been profitable in road night games
as well (+$655). We'll back the hot Nationals and
their ace righty in tonight's opener.
