Premium Pick

The pitch count keeps going up for Clayton Kershaw (3.50 ERA) while his ERA keeps going down, allowing one run in each of his last two starts (10+ innings). The Los Angeles bullpen is seventh in ERA (3.63) and third in WHIP. The St. Louis offense is 24th in runs scored, 17th in on-base percentage, and 19th in slugging. Starter Sonny Gray sports a 2.66 ERA at home where he's holding batters to a .196 average. He has a 162-to-31 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 130+ innings. The Cardinals' relief staff is 10th in ERA (3.70) and this total is too high. Play Los Angeles/St. Louis UNDER the total.
