Los Angeles Dodgers Betting Odds
Since moving to Los Angeles from Brooklyn for the 1958 season the Dodgers have had consistently been one of the most successful teams in Major League Baseball both on the field and at the gate. Currently the Dodgers are in the midst of a franchise record seven consecutive post season appearances. However, Los Angeles has not won a World Series since 1988.
From a gambling perspective that record as a continuous contender, along with their status as one of the most public teams with a massive fan followings, makes Los Angeles one of the worst values on the board. No greater proof of this irony is the fact that the Dodgers have finished three of the last five seasons in red ink despite making the post season.
For 2019 the Dodgers had MLB metrics of fifth for runs scored, 10th for batting average, fourth for OPS and home runs, 22nd for stolen bases, first for staff earned run average and WHIP, seventh for strikeouts, fifth for quality starts, 24th for fielding and fourth for bullpen.
For the past four seasons Dave Roberts has been manager of the Dodgers and has led them to two World Series berths in that span. Roberts replaced the successful Don Mattingly who was not quite able to get Dodger Blue into the Fall Classic despite three consecutive post season berths at the end of his LA tenure. Dave Roberts is a former Major League player from 1999 through 2008. After his playing career he was a broadcaster before catching on with the San Diego Padres where he served as a coach. Roberts was named 2016 National League Manager of the Year.
General manager Andrew Friedman began his career in the front office of the Tampa Bay Rays before moving on to the Dodgers in 2014. While with the Rays he was general manager when they shocked the baseball world by winning the 2008 American League pennant. That success caught the eyes of the Dodgers who made him the highest paid executive in the game.

2020 Season Preview
It should come as no surprise that the Dodgers rank second only to the New York Yankees for the highest payroll in Major League Baseball. Pitcher Clayton Kershaw, right fielder Mookie Betts, third baseman Justin Turner, and pitcher Kenley Jansen are the top paid Dodgers.
Left hand starter Clayton Kershaw has been a mainstay of the great Dodgers pitching staff since 2009 and is a two-time 21-game winner. Last year was another stellar season for Kershaw as he went 16-5 with a 3.03 earned run average and WHIP of 1.04. Kershaw struck out 189 batters in 178.1 innings of work. The 2019 season marked the eighth time in his career that Kershaw made the NL All-Star team. He is a three-time NL Cy Young Award winner and was 2014 National League Most Valuable Player.
Closer Kenley Jansen was 5-3 with 33 saves and a 3.71 earned run average with a WHIP of 1.06 in 2019. Additionally, he struck out 80 batters in 63 innings of work. Jansen is a three-time NL All-Star and a two-time Trevor Hoffman NL Reliever of the Year winner.
Center fielder Cody Bellinger is coming off a monster season that was the best of his three-year career. Bellinger scored 121 runs with 34 doubles, 47 home runs, 115 runs batted in, a .305 average, .629 slugging percentage and 1.035 OPS. That record of excellence was rewarded with 2019 NL MVP honors and the second NL All-Star spot of his career.
