Tyler Glasnow makes his long-awaited return to the mound tonight after four months out with a back injury, and the Dodgers could not be picking a better time to have him back. Los Angeles has won six straight, taking 7 of its last 10 to open a wide lead atop the NL West, and Glasnow's rehab starts were nearly spotless: two earned runs allowed across his final four tune-ups with plenty of swing-and-miss stuff intact. Atlanta counters with Bryce Elder, who has cooled significantly since a dominant first half and now sits at a 3.92 ERA on the year. The Braves still lead the NL East, but they've gone just 3-7 in their last ten games and arrive on the tail end of a rough stretch that just snapped with a single win. This is also a series opener, and a good road team taking the first game of a set against an opponent that just broke a slide is a setup my numbers have liked all year. Los Angeles is the short favorite here for a reason. Go with Los Angeles on the moneyline tonight.

Atlanta plays its ninth straight road game, dropping three of the last five. Bryce Elder had a 5.00 ERA against the Dodgers last season, including a 6-5 loss at Dodger Stadium (3 runs allowed in 4 innings). Defending champion Los Angeles is fifth in runs scored, second in on-base percentage, and third in slugging. Their +74 run differential is tied for the second-best in baseball. Justin Wrobleski (1.25 ERA) is holding batters to a .197 average, with L.A. winning his last five starts. The bullpen ranks fifth (3.36 ERA), so back home field. Play Los Angeles.

Atlanta at Los Angeles
9:10 PM Eastern
Atlanta plays its eighth straight road game, looking road-weary while losing three of four. They've scored just one run in each of the last two games. Spencer Strider (8.10 ERA) was a big disappointment in his first start, getting knocked around at Colorado. He's returning from an oblique injury suffered in spring training. Star-studded Los Angeles is fifth in runs scored, second in on-base percentage, and third in slugging. Their +79 run differential is the best in baseball. Blake Snell (2.35 ERA) has 72 Ks in 61+ innings, with a 1.17 ERA at home, while the bullpen ranks seventh (3.38 ERA). Play Los Angeles.
