Gamblers with the choice of betting on the Los Angeles Dodgers to win the National League West or sticking their money under the mattress should choose the later. There is simply nothing that the Dodgers can offer in the way of wagering value. To tie your money up for six months at 1/10 makes no sense. With that in mind it’s a good idea to examine who would be a viable alternative to LA should they faulter with the MLB odds. And as loaded as the Dodgers appear to be history is loaded with stories of sure things that blew up at an overlay price. With that in mind let’s go over the National League West.

Los Angeles is one of the most public teams on the board and has been for generations. The Dodgers have always had a strong wagering influence from a massive fan base in Las Vegas. Add in their recent run of sustained dominance and you have a very expensive commodity with the MLB odds. The Arizona Diamondbacks are a bona fide wild card contender that would be standing by if LA flops. San Diego is always next year’s team while Colorado and San Francisco unrealistic long shots.
Los Angeles Dodgers
Let’s face it, Los Angeles has had monster metrics of the most complete team in baseball. A team that can do it all. Eventually one would think that the law of averages would prevail and LA could win the post season crap shoot. The arrival Mookie Betts has only heightened hysteria.
Arizona Diamondbacks
The pesky D-Backs have posted three consecutive winning seasons and made the LDS in 2017 as a wild card team. Pitching has been a solid asset for Arizona and the arrival of Madison Bumgarner should enhance that strength. Meanwhile Eduardo Escobar keeps the power on at the plate.
San Diego Padres
To their credit, at least the Padres are returning to their roots with their original 1969 colors of brown and gold, which bring back memories of such stars of the past as Nate Colbert. On the diamond this franchise has not posted a winning record since 2010. Sadly, that’s not likely to change.

The San Francisco Giants were the power of this division but are still in the midst of a youth movement after blowing things up. The Colorado Rockies slipped to 91 losses in 2019 after making the playoffs the previous two seasons. This division looks to be owned by the Dodgers. Which means its probably one to avoid. Arizona is the best of bad alternatives based on price plus ability.
