LA Dodgers -130
We used the Dodgers back to back days earlier in the week as they dominated St. Louis by scores of 13-2 and 9-4 (as +140 dogs). They haven't let up since, taking the first two games of this series from division rival Colorado by scores of 6-1 and 7-6. With that, the club has matched a season high five game win streak and the bats are really hot right now w/ 35 runs scored L4 games, an average of nearly nine per game. They have also taken 18 of 26 here at Dodgers Stadium vs. Colorado. The Rockies are not a good road team, averaging only 3.5 rpg away from Coors Field. Saturday's loss was particularly painful for Colorado, who blew a 4-0 lead and lost in walkoff fashion in the 11th inning. They are now just 14-31 as underdogs this season, including 1-7 vs. LA. Sunday they find themselves as dogs against the emerging Nathan Eovaldi, who has looked very sharp in four starts w/ a 2.05 ERA. He won as a big +170 dog over Chris Carpenter and St. Louis last time out (well the team did) as he allowed just one run over five innings (no decision). In his lone start at Chavez Ravine, Eovaldi threw six scoreless innings. The Rockies have lost a ton of money in all settings this season (-$2030), but they have been particularly bad in day games at 15-27. We look for the Dodgers to stay hot. LA Dodgers are our NL West Game of the Year.

WUNDERDOG
Connecticut at Tulsa
Pick: Under 153
Connecticut can play any style, but they face a Tulsa team that is the worst in the WNBA and can't shoot. Their last home game they shot 42% from the field and 22% (5 of 22) from long range. The previous home game they shot 41% in a 73-67 loss to LA. Tulsa comes home from a trip to LA where they did quite a bit of celebrating, a 77-75 win that ended a WNBA record 20-game skid. Now they get to face a talented Connecticut defense and the UNDER is 18-7-1 in the Shock's last 26 overall, plus 5-2-1 in their last eight home games. I don't see as much offense as the oddsmakers anticipate. Play Connecticut/Tulsa UNDER the total.
