Rays vs. Dodgers World Series Betting Preview with John Bollman! (10/19 Fantasy Baseball Podcast) Oct 19, 2020

Show notes

Just like John predicted a month ago, the Rays and Dodgers are meeting in the 2020 World Series. Now what? ... We're comparing each facet of both teams and starting with offense (4:00). Which lineup is better? Can the Dodgers slow down Randy Arozarena? ... What happens when we look at pitching (8:40)? Both starting pitching staffs are tremendous but who has the advantage? What about the bullpens? ... The Dodgers seemingly robbed home runs every night while the Padres are flipping over walls in foul territory (19:48). Is there an advantage either way here? ... Alright, so who wins and in how many games (23:35)!? Who do we like in terms of MVP pick? Are there any other props we're looking at?... Email us at fantasybaseball@cbsi.com.
