The Los Angeles Dodgers continue their four-game series against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night at Coors Field.

The Rockies upset the Dodgers as nearly +250 underdogs on Monday night before Los Angeles bounced back with an 11-4 victory on Tuesday.

My Dodgers vs. Rockies predictions expect Los Angeles to run up the score again in the best MLB picks on Wednesday, August 20.

Dodgers vs Rockies prediction

Dodgers vs Rockies best bet: Dodgers Over 7.5 runs (+100)

The Los Angeles Dodgers rocked Colorado Rockies starter Austin Gomber last night to the tune of seven runs on nine hits (two home runs) in just three innings.

The Rockies bullpen and its 5.36 ERA then allowed four runs in the next six innings, and we could see a similar result on Wednesday night.

Tanner Gordon gets the ball for Colorado tonight after limiting the Diamondbacks to three runs on five hits and a walk in his last outing.

However, that came on the heels of allowing 7 (6 ER), 7, and 10 runs in his previous three starts. On the season, he’s allowed 38 runs (34 ER) in 38.1 IP for a 7.98 ERA.

The Dodgers scored 9, 8, and 3 in their previous series at Coors Field back in June and should put up another crooked number tonight.

As a two-way star, Shohei Ohtani took the unique route of building up his arm strength in the majors rather than making rehab starts.

He hit a season-high 80 pitches last time out against the Angels, striking out seven after racking up eight in four innings against St. Louis the prior start, and could finally reach the five-inning mark to get his first win of the season tonight.

Will Smith broke out of a short slump with a 3-for-4 performance on Tuesday night. He’s still batting .308 on the season with a slugging percentage of .511.
