The Colorado Rockies (3-12, 1-8 Away) continued to be the worst team in the MLB, and it seems that another series sweep is coming for them in Los Angeles.

Rockies vs Dodgers Prediction

The Dodgers won eight of the previous ten H2H encounters, including the last four. I am not sure whether the Rockies will continue with their offensive struggles and fail to get on the scoreboard here, but I am pretty sure the Dodgers will outscore them big time after scoring just two runs in the last two games. Antonio Senzatela was destroyed in his last start against the Brewers; he allowed a .273 BA with eight home runs and 22 RBI in 143 at-bats against the Dodgers in his career. It’s going to be a long night for Senza. Back the Dodgers to win and cover the run line.
