00:00DRS let's head under the arch for the LA Dodgers in the St. Louis Cardinals the Redbirds of course

00:06have been one of the surprising stories of this MLB season and when you have the pitching

00:12advantage in favor of your team even against the Dodgers you could be booked as a home favorite

00:18Sonny Gray out there tonight for St. Louis and look at the number it's now minus 120 in favor

00:25of St. Louis not the other way around which has that number in favor of LA again live on the FanDuel

00:32Sportsbook here around 10 25 a.m eastern time St. Louis a minus 120 money line favorite total eight

00:40and a half so we can't call it an upset in the cards anymore can Sonny Gray and the Cardinals

00:47take advantage of playing under the arch and knock off LA tonight they should be favored St. Louis

00:52should be favored good team playing good baseball right now with their best pitcher on the mountain

00:56you take a look at the pitchers listed today you know he's the best pitcher on the card it's Tarek

00:59Skubel no surprise you know his number two it's Sonny Gray 29 and two-thirds innings pitched over

01:04the last five starts for him in the last month how about a perfect 3-0 record for Sonny Gray at this

01:09point you take a look at his ERA manageable at 3.03 but how about that x fifth number 2.30

01:15means he's striking guys out not giving a lot of free passes here and getting the job done

01:20right-handed batters get the best of him as opposed to lefties but you look in that lineup today and

01:23say all right Mookie Betts a little bit banged up Tasker Hernandez will be a righty Will Smith you

01:27have some decent right-handed bats but I'm trusting the pitcher because that's usually what you're

01:31betting on we know the Dodgers are extremely talented one through nine but great pitchers like

01:36Sonny Gray is over the past 30 days tend to hold some of those batters down if we flip it to the

01:40opposite side you say you know what Justin Robleski's on the mound not a big you know environment this

01:45season only 38 total batters face only 12 in the past 30 days so you're really probably throwing

01:51what a bullpen session per se for the Dodgers going up against St. Louis I'm going to take St.

01:55Louis they should have gone from a minus 118 let's just say a plus 100 underdog into the favorite role

02:00much better pitcher here's the issue that you might run into though early in the game we're expecting

02:05showery conditions is this game going to be on a delay or a worst case scenario let Sonny Gray go out

02:10there and deal for an inning and a half and the rain comes down 40 minute delay he doesn't return back

02:14that's how you get burned and how you have an advantage towards the Dodgers so make sure you're

02:18checking the weather forecast of this game because if it starts on time we don't think the weather's

02:22that bad Sonny Gray should have a pretty good yay why because he's had a great last month and a pretty

02:26good season so far
