Big Bad Penny wearing a Giants uniform makes his way back to the scene circa 2006. The former Dodger, Red Sox reject, is once again looking like a warrior in NL bringing 3 straight quality starts all wins including one against the Dodgers at the Bay. Here we go for round two.

NL West division rivals are all at each other except San Diego at Pittsburgh. Rockies has lost it's grip on the road and for the Giants playing the Los Angeles series will need to win it if not win it all.

First game both teams nearly emptied everything they had and it was pretty tight until Billingsley entered as a reliever. Chad now moved out of the rotation which will most likely benefit the Dodgers for now. Jon Garland, ex-Diamondback, will get this spot and Jon has not lost as a Dodger, 2 wins and 1 ND, looks like a must watch, but many will sit out on taking stake. I'll play the Dodgers in L.A 60% winners at home, 64% winners against division while Giants are 43% away, 45% under dog and 50% against division. Plus looking at how much pitchers both teams burned last night that's going to hurt Giants more than Dodgers.

LA DODGERS -139 (W)

Rockies on the ropes at sea level. Started on road winning game 1 at San Diego, but it's been down hill from there going 1-6. Jason Hammel get the ball and he has been quality of late, but again Rox mirror two opposite side at home and away with Jason on the mound.
Max 9-9 with Snakes 15-13, winner at home 6-4, team 9-5, and that's what I'll take.

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS -111
