Dodgers vs. Astros Prediction

LA was down in the last two games, while Houston looks dominant. Dave Roberts and his team are dealing with pitching issues, as few of their top pitchers are on the IL. Offensively, Mookie Betts and Max Muncy are yet to return. Although Shohei Ohtani and Teoscar Hernandez have been carrying the burden, it's not enough to make it past Houston.

Ryan, a new pitcher, will need control over the mound, as the opponents have a strong offense that will help them make it past their rival in Game 3. The odds are predicting a sweep, with Houston favored to win.

Prediction: Houston Astros -1.5 (-125)
