Las Vegas -

Sorry about the gremlins...this is what you shoulda read...

Never mind laying a large price with a pitcher that's on a roll, which is why we're looking at the Dodgers with Julio Urias this afternoon. Urias started the 2023 season with just five wins and four losses in 10 outings. Not typical for the talented lefty. Then El Culichi went on the DL for a month and a half with a hamstring strain. His first start back was ugly, allowing 6 earned runs in only 3 innings. Ouch! Since then, Julio has been solid, winning four of his last five, and throwing 11 innings worth of BAGELS in his last two starts. The Rockies will give the ball to Kyle Freeland, and this kid HAS NOT won a game since the middle of May. That's twelve starts and ZERO wins. L.A. is my Lady and the way to a happy wallet.

For your wagering pleasure, here is your spread stat of the day. They just retired Fernando Valenzuela's number yesterday at Dodger Stadium, and this team is on some kinda CRAZY roll. They've won 10 of the last 11 overall while the Rockies have lost seven of the last 10 on the road (EckSTATS do not include last night's games).
