Caesar’s. Roku Sasaki pushed past the five inning mark in his last start against St. Louis, albeit he might have got a bit lucky (47% hard hit rate, 5.63 xFIP, .222 BABIP). He’s struggled mightily with his zone control and pitch efficiency this season, and I’m counting on that to resurface tonight against the Giants. Before the St. Louis start, he was under this line in 5/5 starts this season, and 6/8 last season. Even against a weaker Giants lineup, Sasaki has proven that working into the sixth is an anomaly.

The Dodgers got smoked by Atlanta on Sunday for a second straight defeat but have only lost three in a row once this season. And Mookie Bettis is set to be activated ahead of Monday's game. Now we finally get to see what that full lineup can do. Certainly would prefer any other LA starting pitcher than Roki Sasaki (1-3, 5.97 ERA), but this would be more expensive if so. The Giants can't hit much and are 6-12 away. They taxed the bullpen plenty in Sunday's 12-inning win over Pittsburgh.
