DraftKings. Betting a line this high in a pitcher’s first start isn’t ideal, but Tyler Glasnow isn’t the average pitcher. One of the elite strikeout artists in the game, and he’s coming off a torrid spring (19 strikeouts in 11 innings, culminating in a 73-pitch outing). He should good for 85-90 pitches tonight, against a Braves lineup that is now without Jurickson Profar (suspended). Glasnow has had plenty of success against the core Braves hitters, and Atlanta’ bats have really struggled out of the gate in general.

Well, we can't beat 'em, so we might as well join 'em. That is the way it is with the Dodgers, who continue to find all sorts of ways to win games. That's opposite of the Braves, who found all sorts of ways to lose when getting swept all four in the opening series at San Diego over the weekend. We go ahead and lay the extra run, as the Braves didn't look ready to play on the weekend. Grant Holmes, usually a reliever, was used as an opener on seven occasions last season. Meanwhile, Tyler Glasnow was sharp in his last exhibition outing vs. the Angels a week ago tonight. Play Dodgers on Run Line.

The greatest baseball player on the planet getting a day off after an early start to the season against an opener? I'll bite every time. And the opener is a righty? Works for me. This hitter getting a chance to see a bunch of different pitchers is a loaded lineup sounds just fine to me. And of course he's locked in and off to a fast starter, because he's Ohtani. And he's in his home park. Check.

When Atlanta is full strength, this would maybe be too high to play -- a fine spot to play L.A. not to bat in ninth or -1 if your book offers -- but the Braves are not hitting whatsoever with Ronald Acuna Jr. still likely six weeks from his return. We faded them in San Diego on Sunday night and Atlanta was blanked on one hit. It has totaled just seven runs and 18 hits in starting 0-4 and now faces one of the nastiest guys out there in the Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow. L.A. got a rare Sunday off so the bullpen will be fully ready behind Glasnow as I'm sure he'll be on a pitch count in his season debut.
