Cardinals vs. Dodgers Prediction and Pick
The Dodgers have been better at home this season, and they’re a much better team than the Cardinals.
This is a bit of a steep price, so I wouldn’t blame you if you opt for the run line or a -1 run line to get the push insurance in a potential one-run win.
Pick: Dodgers -187
