St. Louis has cooled off in a hurry, losing seven of its last ten, and tonight's spot doesn't offer much relief. Michael McGreevy takes the mound with a respectable 3.86 ERA on the season, but his last time out was the worst start of his year: seven earned runs in five innings against Baltimore, and now he walks into a Dodgers lineup that ranks second in the majors in OPS and fourth in runs scored per game. Eric Lauer starts for Los Angeles carrying a 4.78 ERA and innings totals that have swung wildly over his last five turns, from two frames to six and a third, against a Cardinals offense that's shown it can still do damage against shaky pitching even during this slide. Both bullpens are live possibilities to enter early given how unpredictable these two starters have been lately, and with one of the sport's most dangerous lineups on one side of this matchup, the posted total is well within reach for either team on its own. The OVER is the play.

Pro Picks
Los Angeles at St. Louis
Only the Dodgers could demand this much respect in the marketplace. It's not justified. LA has lost a season-high four in a row. The Dodgers have scored seven runs in their last four games. They have gone five straight games without a home run for the first time since May 2015. Only three times have the Dodgers homered during their past 11 games. St. Louis has won six in a row sparked by emerging star Jordan Walker, who is tied for second in the National League in home runs with 10. Walker is 6-for-8 with four RBIs in the first two games of this series. Cardinals starter Dustin May, 3-2, 5.28 ERA, won't lack motivation facing his former team. LA is starting Dustin Wrobleski. He has been excellent so far this season with a 4-0 mark and 1.50 ERA. But right now the Dodgers have no business being this high of a favorite. Take the Cardinals.
