Model Analysis
The market is pricing this like a coin flip between two ballclubs, and one of these dugouts is in the middle of a pennant chase while the other is auditioning kids from Sacramento. The Dodgers are the better team by a wide, almost embarrassing margin, and Lauer is a perfectly fine bridge arm against a lineup that swings and misses for a living. Ohtani gets a left-hander he'll happily punish anyway, and the rest of the order doesn't need much help when Kurtz and Langeliers are the only real threats behind him. A 64% favorite at -113 is the kind of mispricing that only happens when the public sees the wrong uniform on the road.
