MLB Spring Training Picks

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts guaranteed a championship this year if his starting pitching “stays healthy.” That doesn’t seem to be much of a stretch for a team that won the 2020 World Series, followed that up with 106 wins last season, AND added Freddie Freeman to an already loaded lineup.

Thus far in spring training, LA has gone 2-3 following last night’s 10-5 win over the Royals. The Dodgers will continue their Cactus League schedule today against the Chicago White Sox, who fell to 5-5 yesterday in a 12-3 loss to the Angels.

Dunkel has the Dodgers favored in this one with a rating of 16.102 compared to the White Sox’ rating of 12.613. Dunkel projects the run total to be at 9.

Dunkel’s Pick:  LA Dodgers (-140); Under
