St. Louis Cardinals vs. Los Angeles Dodgers MLB Picks, Odds, Predictions 6/1/2021

The St. Louis Cardinals and Los Angeles Dodgers meet Tuesday in MLB action at Dodger Stadium.

The Cardinals have won eight of their last 10 games when scoring four or more runs. Tommy Edman leads the Cardinals with 60 hits and 15 RBI while Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt have combined for 108 hits and 63 RBI. John Gant gets the ball, and he is 4-3 with a 1.81 ERA and 35 strikeouts this season. Gant is 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA and 10 strikeouts in his career against the Dodgers.

The Los Angeles Dodgers need a win after losing four of their last six games. The Dodgers have scored 19 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in five straight games. The Dodgers have won five of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs. Justin Turner leads the Dodgers with 51 hits and 28 RBI while Max Muncy and Chris Taylor have combined for 94 hits and 58 RBI. The Los Angeles Dodgers didn’t list a starting pitcher a the time this article was published.

The Cardinals are 6-2 in their last 8 Tuesday games and 8-3 in their last 11 during game 2 of a series. The Dodgers are 24-9 in their last 33 during game 2 of a series and 37-14 in their last 51 Tuesday games. The over is 7-3 in Cardinals last 10 road games. The over is 6-2 in Dodgers last 8 overall. The under is 36-16 in the last 52 meetings.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are going to be favored more times than not, especially at home, for obvious reasons. However, the Dodgers have been shaky over the last week or so and the Cardinals aren’t exactly chopped liver. John Gant has also been highly impressive this season through 44.2 innings, allowing just nine earned runs. Give me the Cards and the big plus money.
