Dodgers vs Rockies Preview, Picks
This system targets divisional underdogs in MLB regular season games that receive low public support but show signs of sharp action or value, which is the case for the Rockies entering today's matchup against the Dodgers.
These 'dogs have moneyline support from less than 30% of bettors, yet still experience little or no negative line movement, suggesting the smart money is holding the line.
Additionally, these bets occur in division games, where familiarity and tighter matchups often reduce the gap between underdog and favorite.
The bet count is modestly above average, further hinting at targeted action rather than mass public overreaction.
