T.M. Selection: LA Dodgers -1.5.

I like the LA Dodgers runline against the Detroit Tigers in this game on Sunday. The Dodgers haven't looked good in their games lately, they just lost their most recent game on their home field to the Tigers 5-1 and they have actually lost 3/4 of their previous 4 games to some of the worst teams in the league. They had 2 of their losses come against the D-Backs in their last series, actually losing that series 2-1 to them, and now they have lost 1 to the Tigers and this game was on their home court unlike the other 2 against the D-Backs. The Dodgers are 1 of the best teams in the league and they are a lot better than teams like the Tigers. They shouldn't be losing these series' and they shouldn't even really be losing any games to them with the amount of skill on the Dodgers at every position. I think the Dodgers are going to be upset over the way they have looked in their games lately and I expect a big bounce back from them here to finish off the series and win it. Walker Buehler (2-1, 2.55 ERA) is up for the Dodgers here and he has looked great in all his starts this year. He has only given up more than 2 runs in 1 of his starts and his most recent start was a game that he pitched all 9 innings and only gave up 3 hits in the entire game. I think he is hot and I don't see the Tigers scoring runs on him like the did yesterday and I expect him to go deep into this game again. Elvin Rodríguez (0-0, 13.50 ERA) is up for the Tigers here and he has only pitched in 1 game ever in the MLB since this is his rookie year. He gave up 4 runs in less than 3 innings against the White Sox and his team went on to lose that game 10-1. This will actually be his 1st ever start in the MLB and the Dodgers with that lineup is not really the team you want to see in your 1st ever start. I think he is going to get rocked in this game and give up a ton of runs here. I like the Dodgers to bounce back here and win this game by -1.5.

T.M. Prediction: 7-1 Dodgers.
