MLB Premium Play 05/21: Los Angeles Dodgers @ Milwaukee Brewers


MLB - 907 Los Angeles Dodgers @ 908 Milwaukee Brewers

(Starting Pitchers: Z. Greinke vs H. Burgos)

Zach Greinke is back to Milwaukee! Due to some bad results, it has been rumored that the Dodgers' coach might be fired, but the athletes want him to stay and they are fighting to keep him in LA. Yesterday, Clayton Kershaw had another impressive outing by crushing Milwaukee to put his season ERA at 1.35 ERA! Zach Greinke returned from a collarbone injury against Washington, in a start where he looked good. He was limited to 83 pitches last Wednesday in order to ease him back into action. His stuff was dominant, while he also appeared to be moving forward without problems. Milwaukee has been struggling lately on their hitting and Greinke dominates RH batters without issues, as seen last season, where he had 2.80 FIP and 3.23 xFIP against them! Therefore, I expect Greinke to have a good outing tonight.

Hiram Burgos will start tonight and after getting crushed at Cincinnati, he was average at Pittsburgh with 8 hits and 3 runs allowed in 5.0 innings, while having a 3/1 K/BB ratio. He is still looking quite limited in my opinion and he has already faced the Dodgers this season in April, where he struggled with a 4.50 ERA, 5.70 FIP and 5.94 xFIP! With Greinke dominating a struggling Brewers' offense and with Burgos being limited, I expect the Dodgers to pick up a comfortable road win tonight.

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 907 Los Angeles Dodgers ML (w/ Z. Greinke) @ -128 / 1.78 on 5Dimes
