Going with CLAYTON KERSHAW and the DODGERS .. KERSHAW on a 22 scoreless inning streak .. of course, there are those that will pull the DUE CARD, and it is hard to argue with that .. all streaks come to an end, and a bunt single or an error and a misplaced fastball, and you are a bip and a bop away from a two run inning. Runline is (+105) and yet the 1H LAD -1/2 is (-145) .. go figure .. guess they figure the Dodgers pen ain't so good ... guess I go with the first five inning play at (-145) as the POD, although I played more on the runline .. want to give us the best shot to win.
