Preview of Dodgers vs Reds Prediction
The Dodgers remain one of MLB’s most prolific offenses — averaging over 5.2 runs per game, with 160+ homers and a .255 batting average. Yamamoto’s strong season (2.55 ERA, 124 K) contrasts sharply with Chase Burns’ rookie struggles (6.65 ERA, shaky command), making this a potential early exit for Cincinnati’s starter. Meanwhile, Cincinnati’s current home form and recent bullpen resilience give them an edge if they can stay within that +1.5 number.
