Why we made this MLB moneyline pick

The Los Angeles Dodgers are a strong home favorite with an 8-2 L10 record, averaging 6.2 RS/g while the Padres are 2-8 in their L10, averaging 3.9 RS/g. The Dodgers also have a much more effective offense against left-handed pitching, with an OPS of .762 compared to the Padres' .675 OPS vs RHP. The Padres' starting pitcher, JP Sears, has a high ERA of 6.97 and WHIP of 1.74, while the Dodgers' pitcher, Emmet Sheehan, has a better ERA of 5.08 and WHIP of 1.27. Additionally, the Padres' bullpen is tired, throwing 157 pitches in the last 2 days, while the Dodgers' bullpen is fresh with only 76 pitches. The Dodgers are a 'must-win' team, adding to their motivation. The -2.5% EV on the Dodgers is offset by the public bias and the clear L10 and pitching edges. Sized at 3u — confidence 77 with some negative EV, but strong fundamental advantages.
