New York Mets vs. Los Angeles Dodgers MLB Betting Preview (04-20-2024)

As always, the Los Angeles Dodgers are the class of the National League West. Accordingly, with the highest payroll in baseball, the Dodgers should dominate the baseball betting odds. First place in the National League West belongs to Los Angeles. And there is little chance that changes in the 2024 season. On Saturday, the Dodgers host the New York Mets. Similarly, the Mets have a large payroll, too. But New York lacks the success of the Dodgers. Gamblers remain weary after the Mets. Especially after getting burned so badly in 2023.
