Starting Pitchers

Julio Urias pitched six innings and allowed only three hits and one earned run in Los Angeles’ 4-1 win over the Atlanta Braves last Friday night. Urias has been rock-solid for the Dodgers this season with a 2.48 ERA, a 1.01 WHIP and 71 strikeouts in 76.1 innings pitched.

German Marquez had his best start of the season last Friday against the Minnesota Twins, pitching 7.2 scoreless innings in a 1-0 Rockies win. Marquez has recorded a 4.40 ERA in five June starts and has led Colorado to a perfect 5-0 record in those starts. He owns a 5.58 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP on the season.

Los Angeles Has Struggled Against Division Rivals Of Late

The Dodgers entered this series against the Rockies on a 5-1 SU after sweeping the Cincinnati Reds and taking two of three games against the Atlanta Braves. But despite closing as -200 favorites with Tyler Anderson on the mound on Monday and as -205 favorites with Clayton Kershaw starting on Tuesday, Los Angeles lost both games.

Los Angeles is now 0-5 in its last five games against NL West opponents and 14-10 against division rivals on the season. The Dodgers were much more dominant against divisional foes last season with a 50-26 record against them.

Colorado Has Enjoyed Recent Success As A Home Underdog

The Rockies went 1-5 over their recent six-game road trip with three losses against the Miami Marlins and two against the Minnesota Twins. Prior to that trip, Colorado scored three straight upset wins at home against the San Diego Padres.

The club is now 5-0 in its last five games as a home underdog after beating the Dodgers 4-0 on Monday night and 7-4 on Tuesday night. Bettors taking Colorado as their Dodgers vs Rockies prediction will be hoping the Rockies can keep this hot streak at home up for another game.

Dodgers vs Rockies Pick & Insights

Dodgers: Keys To Victory

Julio Urias has historically struggled against the Rockies with a 5.61 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP in 61 career innings pitched against Colorado. The Dodgers are capable of winning with their bats, but the much smoother path to a Dodgers vs Rockies prediction win would be for Urias to keep Colorado’s offense in check.

Rockies: Keys To Victory

Colorado has been pitching uncharacteristically well over its last six games, allowing only 3.17 runs per game over that 3-3 stretch. If German Marquez can keep that trend going, the Rockies could score another big payout for bettors taking them as their Dodgers vs Rockies pick on Wednesday night.
