Thursday MLB Pick

The Los Angeles Dodgers will go for a sweep of the host Colorado Rockies when they wrap up their 3-game set this afternoon at Coors Field. The Dodgers, who are tied with the Detroit Tigers for the best record in baseball, should take care of business today against the worst in baseball, the 18-62 Rockies. Two southpaws are expected to oppose each other today: Clayton Kershaw for the Dodgers and Austin Gomber for the Rockies. The future Hall of Famer Kershaw is 3-0 with a 3.31 ERA, a 1.32 WHIP, and is 27-11 in his career against the Rockies with an ERA of 3.30. The Dodgers, who are first in the league in runs scored, hits, homers, batting average, OBP, and slugging, should feast on Gomber today. Gomber is 0-1 with an 8.38 ERA, a 1.66 WHIP, and was tagged for 12 hits and 9 runs in his last turn against the Arizona D-backs, resulting in a 14-8 loss.
