The St. Louis Cardinals travel to Los Angeles for an regular season game starting at 10:10 PM EDT, which you can catch on ESPN Unlmtd, MLB.TV, and Cardinals.TV. Michael McGreevy (RHP, #36) takes the mound for a team batting .240 with a 4.23 team ERA, facing Eric Lauer (LHP, #33) for a squad hitting .258 and boasting a 3.62 team ERA. McGreevy isn't exactly painting a masterwork of composure with a 1.25 WHIP, so the Cardinals will need their defense to be slightly more composed than their bullpen has been lately.
With star shortstop Masyn Winn and right fielder Everson Pereira both on the 10-day IL, the Cardinals' lineup is missing its usual spark, forcing them to rely on grit rather than glamour. The betting lines have the home team as heavy favorites at -199 against a 9.0 run total, suggesting the Dodgers are expected to steamroll the entire concept of a close game.
