Result: Win
The set-up: I think that Clayton Kershaw and the home side are well worth the price of admission in this matchup. The visitors counter with Mike Foltynewicz.
The pitchers: Foltynewicz (0-1, 5.06 ERA) most recently gave up six runs off eight hits over 4.2 innings in a loss to the Friars on Thursday. Over 10.2 innings of work so far this year he's given up three home runs and he now sports an ugly 1.41 WHIP and .318 opponent batting average.
Kershaw (1-0, 2.77) gave up three runs off six hits with one walk while striking out six over six innings in a no-decision to the Padres on Friday. Since coming off the DL he's posted four straight quality efforts.
The pick: Ryu shutout the Braves on four hits in a 9-0 win last night for LA, so Kershaw has his work cut out for him. But Clearly this is a matchup which favors the veteran and I believe he comes in focused on the task at hand. Lay the price.
6* LA DODGERS
