Power outage in L.A. is why we're SALEing with the Braves!

Las Vegas - Not picking against the Dodgers just because they beat my Yankees in the 2024 World Series. Picking against Los Angeles for a few reasons. First, Chris Sale. The future Hall of Fame lefty had NO problem with the Dodgers the last time he saw them in Atlanta. Sale fed them a gorgeous nine inning bagel while posting 11 Ks. Then we look at Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who is phenomenal, but, he has not pitched since September 23. Sure he has had a few workouts, but that's THIRTEEN DAYS between starts and that's an issue. Finally, we looked at the Dodgers power outage in the top three slots in their batting order. Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani and Will Smith are a combined 3 for 21 in the first two games, and they have not even faced Sale. Tough to pick against Yamamoto, but gotta sail, or Sale, with the Braves to post a W in ATL.
