Clayton Kershaw has tossed 12 scoreless innings in his last two starts, and he posted a Quality Start vs. these Cardinals in his debut in the majors. Take the Dodgers.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have lost the first two games of this series vs. the St. Louis Cardinals despite being favored both nights, but we look for them to turn things around and prevail as underdogs in the series finale.
Young Clayton Kershaw has looked great in his last two outings, tossing 12 scoreless innings while allowing just eight hits. Remember also that he made his major league debut vs. these Cardinals in Los Angeles back in May, and he posted a Quality Start while allowing two runs on five hits in six innings.
Cards starter Kyle Lohse appears to be coming back to earth after an abnormally great start. He has a 6.38 ERA in his last three starts, and he has also struggled in afternoon games all year, posting a 5.18 ERA in 11 starts under the sunshine.
Finally, as expected, the Dodgers have perked up offensively since the acquisition of Manny Ramirez, averaging 5.75 runs in the last four games. That should be more than enough for the upset here, given the fine form Kershaw is in.
Free Pick: Dodgers +120
