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.
