Analysis
Gold Standard on LA Dodgers Although the Astros have made their way up to the top of the AL West, the Dodgers have been the hotter teams as of late with wins in five of their last six games. Meanwhile, the Astros have lost their last three of four games, including two against the Oakland A's. The Dodgers have a better bullpen and aside from their most recent win against the A's, the Astros haven't scored more than four runs since the 12th of July, a span of eight games. The Dodgers have proved they can win on the road and they have taken three of their last four against the Astros. Gavin Stone will take the hill for the Dodgers as they try to distance themselves from the rest of the division. Stone has been solid thus far into the season with a 9-3 record with a 3.19 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 18 starts. In 101.2 innings, he has 79 strikeouts and 28 walks to his name. His last start was against the Red Sox where he gave up only one run in five innings pitched, striking out three and walking none in the process. It’s all Dodger Blue in this game.
