Analyzing Thursday’s Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (44-35) take on the Colorado Rockies (32-50) in the finale of a 3-game set Thursday at Coors Field. First pitch is at 8:40 p.m. ET (MLB Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Dodgers vs. Rockies odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Dodgers lead 3-1

The Dodgers were overpowered 9-8 Wednesday after taking the series opener 5-0 in a rare shutout at Coors Field. L.A. is just 9-11 over its last 20 games and sits in 3rd place, 3 games out in the NL West. The Dodgers are 13-11 in the NL West and 20-20 on the road.

The Rockies have traded wins and losses over the last 6 games, but they’re just 6-14 over the last 20. The 9 runs they scored Wednesday were the most they’ve plated since scoring 11 on May 28. The Rockies are now 19-21 at home but just 5-16 against divisional opponents.

Dodgers at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 9, Rockies 6

Moneyline

We had a good beat on Colorado Wednesday, but I wasn’t comfortable enough to throw down on their ML. We would have had to sweat that one out as they went up 4-0, down 6-4 and almost gave it away late.

I’m not feeling the Rockies at all Thursday. Anderson has given up 16 ER in 5 2/3 IP over his last 2 starts. We truly don’t know what to expect from the rookie Sheehan in his first taste of Coors Field. He uses a fastball, slider and changeup, but he relies on the 96-mph heater 65% of the time. Opposing hitters are 0-for-23 off of it, but the thin air will affect it.

I look for the Dodgers to take this one, but I’m not paying -210 for it. Head to the Win/Total section and take DODGERS and OVER 7.5 (-135) at a more reasonable rate.

Run line/Against the spread

The Rockies scored the most runs they have in over a month Wednesday, and they averaged just 3.67 runs per game in the previous 9 games. While the Dodgers have a wild-card rookie on the mound, I can’t back the Rockies to keep it within 3 runs in the series finale Thursday. The Dodgers have also not given enough confidence this season to back them by 3. If the spread falls to -1.5, take the Dodgers.

Otherwise, PASS.

Over/Under

The wind was blowing in pretty hard Wednesday, and we still saw 17 runs cross the plate. The total is a half-run lower Thursday. Anderson has given up at least 7 in his last 2 starts, and Sheehan will have to figure out how his stuff moves in the thin air on the fly.

I’ll LEAN OVER 12 (-105).

Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (44-34) take on the Colorado Rockies (31-50) in the 2nd of a 3-game set Wednesday at Coors Field. First pitch is at 8:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Dodgers vs. Rockies odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Dodgers lead 3-0

The Dodgers took the series opener in a rare 5-0 shutout at Coors Tuesday with LHP Clayton Kershaw allowing 1 hit over 6 scoreless frames with just 2 strikeouts and DH J.D. Martinez hitting his 300th career homer. The Dodgers have won 5 of 6 after a rough stretch as they’re 9-11 over the last 20. Los Angeles sits 3 games back of the NL West-leading Arizona Diamondbacks.

The Rockies have traded wins and losses over the last 4 games, but they’re just 5-15 over the last 20. OF Kris Bryant (heel) is set to begin a rehab assignment Wednesday and his return should help a team that is 3rd-worst with 0.89 home runs per game. The Rockies are 18-21 at home but just 4-16 against divisional opponents.

Dodgers at Rockies projected starters

TBD vs. LHP Kyle Freeland

The Dodgers are going with a bullpen game Wednesday and have not announced who will open the game.

  • Los Angeles’ bullpen is 26th in MLB with a 4.64 ERA but 7th with 309 strikeouts
  • RHP Michael Grove, who was recently demoted to the bullpen, figures to see action in this game. He went 0-2 with an 8.10 ERA in the rotation but threw 2 scoreless innings in his first relief outing Friday.

Freeland (4-8, 4.54 ERA) makes his 17th start. He has a 1.40 WHIP, 2.5 BB/9 and a 5.6 K/9 over 85 1/3 IP.

  • Last start: No-decision, 5 IP, 4 R (3 ER), 9 H, 2 BB, 3 K Friday against Los Angeles Angels.
  • Last 5 starts vs. Dodgers: 2-2, 5.33 ERA, 1.44 WHIP, 30 K in 27 IP
  • Better at home: 3-2 with a 3.42 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, 7.4 K/9 vs. 1-6 with a 5.92 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 3.3 K/9 on the road

Dodgers at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 6, Rockies 5

Moneyline

The Rockies are resilient. The Angels clobbered them 25-1 Saturday in the worst loss in the history of the franchise, but they came back the next day and won 4-3.

The Dodgers are banged up, and their bullpen has been awful. After just 3 hits Tuesday, I look for the Rockies to come out swinging. Freeland is from Colorado and has always been able to navigate the thin air. He has beaten the Dodgers in his last 2 matchups against them at Coors, allowing 3 ER in 6 IP each time.

I’m not ready to anoint this Rockies team as the winner, but I love them ATS Wednesday.

PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

Freeland has not won in his last 7 starts, but he has kept teams to 3 ER or fewer in 4 of them and 3 of those outings were at Coors.

The Dodgers are scoring 3.8 runs per game over the last 10 outings. Again, I think Colorado could win this game, but I’m just not quite willing to throw down on it.

I LOVE giving Colorado two runs here. Take the ROCKIES +2.5 (-120).

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

The wind is blowing in at 14 mph with a mid-80s temperature in Denver. I feel like the books are overreacting just a bit to the pitching matchup. Freeland has a sub-4 ERA at home, and Colorado is 18th at 4.47 runs/9. The Over is just 3-7 over the last 10 games between these teams. The Under is 5-0-2 in the Dodgers’ last 7 road games.

Take the UNDER 12.5 (-110).

Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds and lines, with expert MLB picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (43-34) and the Colorado Rockies (31-49) open a 3-game series at Coors Field in Denver on Tuesday. First pitch is scheduled for 8:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Dodgers vs. Rockies odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Dodgers lead 2-0

The Dodgers suffered a 6-5 setback Sunday in their series finale against the Houston Astros, although Los Angeles took 2 of 3 games in a rematch of the controversial 2017 World Series. L.A. has won 4 of the past 5 games overall but remains in 3rd place in the NL West, 3 games back of the division-leading Arizona Diamondbacks.

The Rockies won 2 of 3 games from the other Los Angeles area team over the weekend, although the Angels outscored them 32-12 in the series. That’s because the Halos won Saturday’s game by a 25-1 count. The Rockies are just 2-9 in the past 11 games overall.

Dodgers at Rockies projected starters

LHP Clayton Kershaw vs. RHP Connor Seabold

Kershaw (9-4, 2.72 ERA) makes his 16th start. He has a 1.10 WHIP, 2.3 BB/9 and 10.4 K/9 across 89 1/3 IP.

  • Last start: Win, 7 IP, 0 ER, 5 H, 2 BB, 5 K in a 2-0 road win vs. the Los Angeles Angels last Tuesday
  • 2023 road splits: 5-3, 3.44 ERA (52 1/3 IP, 20 ER – 7 HR) with a .246 OBA in 9 starts

Seabold (1-3, 5.88 ERA) makes his 10th start and 17th appearance. He has a 1.48 WHIP, 3.0 BB/9 and 6.8 K/9 across 56 2/3 IP.

  • Last start: Loss, 3 IP, 9 ER, 9 H (4 HR), 1 BB, 1 K in a 10-2 road loss vs. the Atlanta Braves on June 17
  • 2023 home splits: 0-1, 4.91 ERA (29 1/3 IP, 16 ER – 4 HR) with a .274 OBA in 4 starts and 5 relief appearances

Dodgers at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 6, Rockies 4

Moneyline

The Dodgers (-300) are a very risky play in this series opener considering you’d be laying 3 times your potential return on the road against a team that played them tough last season.

However, the way Colorado (+240) has played recently and the fact it is facing the southpaw Kershaw, means the Rox cannot be trusted either.

PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

The ROCKIES +2.5 (+105) are worth playing very, very lightly. It’s mostly based on the fact Kershaw has been fairly mortal on the road this season, while keeping in mind that Colorado played Los Angeles tough last season. Back the Rox, but don’t get carried away.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

UNDER 12 (-110) is the play, although going low on totals at Coors Field is always a risky proposition.

The Under is 4-0-2 in Los Angeles’ past 6 road games and is 3-1-1 in its last 5 series openers. The Under is also 3-0-1 in the Dodgers’ last 4 games on the road against a right-handed starting pitcher.

The Under has cashed at a 4-1 clip in the past 5 games at Coors for the Rockies and is 4-1 in their last 5 games inside the division. The Under is also an impressive 12-3-1 in their past 16 tries against a left-handed starting and 5-1 in their last 6 in this series.

Dodgers at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 6, Rockies 4

Money line

The Dodgers are 22-5 in their last 27 games and the Rockies have lost 7 of their last 10.

There is a chance for a closer game than you might think, based on the pitching matchup because of both starters’ recent outings. However, only the Houston Astros have more than the Dodgers’ 32 road wins.

I expected the Dodgers to win, but the -190 line isn’t worth the action unless you include it in a parlay bet. PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

Of the Dodgers’ 67 wins this season, 59 have been by at least 2 runs. They are 59-41 ATS overall and 29-21 ATS on the road.

The Rockies are 7-5 ATS against the Dodgers this season and have covered the spread in 6 of their last 8 games.

But expect the Dodgers to bounce back from the loss.

Take the DODGERS -1.5 (-125).

Over/Under

Only 3 of the 12 games between the Dodgers and Rockies have had at last 12 runs. Only 2 of Gonsolin’s starts all season have had 12 or more runs.

Twelve of Marquez’ 19 starts have had 11 or fewer runs and so have 3 of his last 4.

Take UNDER 11.5 (-130).

Prediction

Dodgers 7, Rockies 5

Money line

PASS. The Rockies have lost 7 of their last 9 games and 6 straight to the Dodgers, while the Dodgers have only 4 losses in their last 26 games.

The Dodgers are just playing too well right now to bet the Rockies (+190) to win outright. But the -240 juice of Los Angeles it isn’t worth the risk here unless you include it in a parlay bet.

Run line/Against the spread

Eight of the Dodgers’ last 10 wins have been by at least 3 runs, including Thursday’s 13-0 series-opening rout at Coors. But only 3 of their 7 wins over the Rockies are by at least 3 runs.

Considering Kershaw’s ERA in Coors Field, the Rockies will put runs on the board, and the Dodgers have hit Freeland well this season.

If the alternate line of Dodgers -1.5 (-155) didn’t have so much juice, I’d consider it, but I’ll avoid and LEAN ROCKIES +2.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Only 3 of the 11 games between the two teams this season have had 12 or more runs.

Plus, none of Freeland’s 3 starts against L.A. reached 12 combined runs.

With how the Dodgers have hit Freeland this season and how Kershaw was knocked around in his last Coors Field start, take OVER 11.5 (+105).

Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (66-32) take on the Colorado Rockies (45-55) Friday in the 2nd game of a 4-game set at Coors Field. First pitch is set for 8:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Dodgers vs. Rockies odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Dodgers lead 6-4

The Dodgers opened up a can on the Rockies Thursday with a 13-0 rout. LHP Tyler Anderson threw 7-scoreless innings, and SS Trea Turner continued his awesome season with 3 RBIs. The Dodgers are 8-2 and 17-3 over the last 10 and 20 games, respectively.

The Rockies played really well leading up to the All-Star break but have stumbled out of the gates at 2-5 to start the second half. 3B Kris Bryant has struggled with a bout of plantar fasciitis, but his play has been solid. He’s 7-for-15 (.467) with 5 XBH over the last 4 games.

One thing that concerns me is that while Kuhl has kept it such at Coors this season, he does has a 9.00 ERA across his last 4 starts — 2 of which came at home. I like the Dodgers to win here despite that he shut them down last time — but not in the 2.5-run landslide. LEAN ROCKIES +1.5 FIRST 5 INNINGS (-130) as Urias’ struggles at Coors should keep the Rockies in contention early on.

Run line/Against the spread

The Rockies are 4-3 at Coors in this season series. Two of those 3 losses were blowouts. Kuhl is the X-factor here, and if he does what he normally does at home, this should be an easy cash. LEAN ROCKIES +2.5 (-115).

Over/Under

Over the last 10 games, the Rockies had double-digit O/U’s 6 times, and the Under hit 4 times. It’s humid, and the wind is blowing out to right-center at 8 mph, but again, Kuhl keeps this under control – pun intended. LEAN UNDER 11.5 (-105).

Dodgers at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 5, Rockies 2

Money line

The Rockies are surprisingly tough at home despite being a last-placed team. They are 29-24 at Coors Field this season and 6-2 in their last 8 home games.

However, the Dodgers are red-hot right now and are very hard to beat with Anderson on the mound.

PASS on the money line for this game. I don’t like the Rockies enough to win outright and it isn’t worth the action on the Dodgers.

Run line/Against the spread

The Dodgers almost always win by at least 2 runs. That makes them almost a lock pick when they are -1.5. However, -2.5 is a different story.

Seven of L.A.’s last 8 wins have been by at least 3 runs. The Dodgers have won 10 of Anderson’s 16 starts by at least 3 runs.

I’m going to ignore the Rockies’ recent good run at home and look at Urena’s last start when he got knocked around.

Take the DODGERS -2.5 (+102).

Over/Under

The projected total, as per the usual for games in Denver, is high.

Only 4 of the Dodgers’ last 24 games have had totals of more than 12 runs.

Five of the Rockies’ last 11 games have had more than 12 runs and only 3 of their last 8 home games have.

Only 3 of Anderson’s starts have had totals of 13 or more.

Take UNDER 12.5 (-125) as your lock of the night.

Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (45-28) hope to avoid getting swept as they take on the Colorado Rockies (33-42) for the final game of their 3-game series in Denver. First pitch is 8:40 p.m. ET at Coors Field. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Dodgers vs. Rockies odds with MLB picks and predictions.

The Rockies lead the season series 4-1.

The Dodgers have dropped 3 of their last 4 games, including the first 2 in Denver, getting shut out 4-0 Monday and then losing 7-4 Tuesday. Despite the losses, they are still 8-5 in their last 13 games.

The Rockies have won their last 5 home games and are on the verge of a 2nd straight series sweep at home over an NL West opponent.

Dodgers at Rockies projected starters

LHP Julio Urias vs. RHP German Marquez

Urias (5-6, 2.48 ERA) makes his 15th start. He has a 1.01 WHIP, 2.2 BB/9 and 8.4 K/9 in 76 1/3 IP.

  • Has won his last 2 starts and has a 1.54 ERA in his last 4 outings, spanning 23 1/3 innings. The Dodgers are 2-2 in those 4 starts.
  • His first start of the season April 10 was a loss to Colorado, when he allowed 6 R (3 ER) on 6 H in 2 IP. In 15 career appearances (12 starts) vs. the Rockies, he’s 2-2 with a 5.61 ERA and 1.38 WHIP.

Marquez (4-5, 5.58 ERA) makes his 15th start. He has a 1.50 WHIP, 3.2 BB/9 and 7.6 K/9 in 80 2/3 IP.

  • Got a no-decision in his first start of the year April 9 against the Dodgers with 7 IP, 1 R, 3 H, 0 BB and 5 K. In 12 career starts against the Dodgers, he is 2-1 with a 2.89 ERA.

Dodgers at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 5, Rockies 4

Money line

PASS on the money line. The Dodgers have only been swept on the road once all season and it was by the 41-win San Francisco Giants.

Marquez has been very good in his career against the Dodgers but wildly inconsistent this season. He has allowed 4 or more earned runs in 8 of his starts while Urias has allowed 2 or fewer in 11 of his starts.

I expect L.A. to win but the price isn’t worth the action here unless it is part of a parlay bet.

Run line/Against the spread

Of the Dodgers’ 45 wins this season, 41 are by at least 2 runs. However, to cover the Wednesday’s spread, they will have to win by 3. They have 31 wins of 3 or more. They are 24-17 ATS on the road.

The Rockies are 21-19 ATS at home. Of their 42 losses, 26 are by 3 or more.

However, with Marquez’ success in his career against the Dodgers, I won’t rule out a close game.

Take the ROCKIES +2.5 (-125). 

Over/Under

Only 1 of the 5 games the 2 teams have played has had more than 11 runs.

The Rockies’ last 7 games have had 11 or fewer runs.

Of the Dodgers’ last 16 games, only 2 have had 12 or more runs.

Take UNDER 11.5 (-110).
