MLB Online Baseball Wagering - Dodgers vs. Rockies
By D.S Williamson
The Los Angeles Dodgers have won six games in a row. They haven’t beaten the online betting best and brightest in the National League, the Dodgers swept Colorado and then swept the Florida Marlins for this six game streak, but any sort of win streak and the Dodgers is music to the ears of baseball betting enthusiasts. MLB betting trends always point towards hot teams as the way to build your bankroll. Of course, the key is jumping onto the hot team at the right moment.
It doesn’t always work out that way. But the Dodgers do have an excellent chance to keep their winning streak going as they send ace Brad Penny to the mound tonight in a game where they will look to score as many runs as they can. Penny is solid with a 4 and 2 record and an ERA of 2.89. He’s given up only 1 home-run in 37.1 innings pitched.
The Rockies counter with Jeff Francis. I’ve been hard on Francis all year, but in terms of online sportsbook betting, Francis hasn’t been terrible. He has a record of 0 and 2 with an ERA of 5.01. He’s slowly getting better as the season progresses. Of course he could take a step back because the Dodgers are no joke right now.
Here are the BetUS online sportsbook betting odds for this game.
Los Angeles Dodgers
Brad Penny – R - 1 ½ + 150 - 115 0 9 + 110
Colorado Rockies
Jeff Francis – L + 1 ½ - 170 - 105 U 9 - 130
First, I’m not even going to think about the BetUS over/under in this game. The nine runs appear to be an online sucker wager to me. Penny could very well dominate this game while Francis could either be very good or very bad. Because the odds are better on the over, if you feel the need to place an online wager on the BetUS over/under, then go over.
I think the best online sportsbook bet above is the one on Brad Penny giving up 1 ½ runs at + 150. Penny has been dynamite, but, more importantly, the Dodgers have given the needed run support to their pitchers lately.
That will be the key as Penny can’t do it all on his own.
The BetUS
sportsbook wagering odds on Brad Penny for the Los Angeles Dodgers to beat the Colorado Rockies and Jeff Francis tonight is Penny – 1 ½ runs + 150.
I’ll put a baseball betting online wager on Brad Penny to dominate Francis and the Rockies tonight.
