The Dodgers as own six World Series championships and 23 National League pennants. 11 NL MVP award winners have played for the Dodgers, winning a total of 13 MVP Awards; eight Cy Young Award winners have pitched for the Dodgers, winning a total of twelve Cy Young Awards.

Los Angeles Dodgers Betting

Could the Dodgers capture the NL West by more than 20 games? If so, they could challenge the National League record of a 21.5-game margin in the Divisional Era (since 1969), when the Mets topped the second-place Phillies in 1986. In other words. laying $3 or more on L.A. at DraftKings Sportsbook is impractical, so look for run-line plays to exceed the break-even line to become profitable.

Batting

The Dodgers easily possess the best line-up in the National League, with RF Cody Bellinger, 1B Max Muncy, 3B Justin Turner, CF Alex Verdugo* and many others.

Pitching

Clayton Kershaw is healthy and back in top form. Walker Buehler and Hyun-Jin Ryu could be the ace for any other NLstaff, while the bullpen features closer Kenley Jansen, who gets the job done despite ordinary numbers.
