Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Colorado Rockies – 9/6/20 MLB Pick, Odds, and Prediction
2020-09-06 22:10:00 EDT
The Colorado Rockies and Los Angeles Dodgers meet Sunday in MLB action at Dodger Stadium.
The Colorado Rockies need a win after losing five of their last eight games. The Rockies have scored 20 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in eight of their last 10 games. The Rockies have split their last 10 games when scoring four or more runs. Charlie Blackmon leads the Rockies with 51 hits and 30 RBI while Trevor Story and Nolan Arenado have combined for 81 hits and 41 RBI. Ryan Castellani gets the ball, and he is 1-2 with a 4.81 ERA and 18 strikeouts this season. This will be Castellani’s first career game against the Dodgers.
The Los Angeles Dodgers look for another win after winning 12 of their last 15 games. The Dodgers have scored 17 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in seven of their last 11 games. The Dodgers have won 10 of their last 11 games when scoring four or more runs. Mookie Betts leads the Dodgers with 48 hits and 31 RBI while Corey Seager and AJ Pollock have combined for 80 hits and 48 RBI. Julio Urias gets the ball, and he is 3-0 with a 3.27 ERA and 29 strikeouts this season. Urias is 0-1 with a 5.92 ERA and 24 strikeouts in his career against the Rockies.
The Rockies are 2-6 in their last 8 during game 3 of a series, 3-11 in their last 14 games as an underdog and 1-4 in their last 5 overall. The Dodgers are 43-13 in their last 56 Sunday games, 39-12 in their last 51 games as a favorite and 39-13 in their last 52 overall. The over is 4-1 in Rockies last 5 overall. The over is 2-0-2 in Dodgers last 4 Sunday games. The Rockies are 14-44 in the last 58 meetings in Los Angeles.
Ryan Castellani has allowed 13 runs and 21 hits in his last 24.1 innings while Julio Urias has allowed 11 runs and 27 hits in his last 28 innings. Urias wasn’t great in the month of August, and the Rockies have found their offense again. Of course, the Dodgers should be favored based on their consistency this year. However, these prices are getting out of hand and it almost makes you want to fade them as long as it’s not Kershaw on the hill. I’ll take a shot in the dark with the Rockies and the monster plus money.
