Chicago Cubs plus-192 at Los Angeles Dodgers: $300 to win $576
Betting against Clayton Kershaw isn’t a good idea for long-term profitability, but every once in a while I just can’t pass up the underdog payout of going opposite him.
The Dodgers have lost three of Kershaw’s last four starts, although in only one of those was Kershaw not excellent. So while I’m not overly confident there’s recent evidence this can work, and after back-to-back losses, I’m hoping Chicago comes out on fire to start this weekend series.
