It's a decent-size price against a respectable opponent, but it's still worth laying with Walker Buehler on the mound.
Buehler is your probable Cy Young Award winner in the National League. He's 13-2 with a 2.02 ERA in 26 starts. He's been absolutely magnificent this month with a 1.35 ERA in five August starts. Buehler has given up two earned runs or fewer in his last nine starts. The Braves are familiar with Buehler. He beat them twice in the NLCS last year, giving up one run in 11 innings.
Charlie Morton can't compete against those standards. Morton is 12-5 with a 3.60 ERA. He was touched for four runs in five innings against the Yankees during his previous start.
The Dodgers have stepped up their game, too, going 14-3 in their last 17 games.
