Brendan O’Sullivan dives into his pick and prediction for the Colorado Rockies vs. Los Angeles Dodgers game on Tuesday, May 26.
The Rockies and Dodgers play the second game of their three-game series on Tuesday, May 26.
Los Angeles is a -244 moneyline favorite, while Colorado is +197 on DraftKings Sportsbook. The game total is set at over/under nine runs.
Let’s get into a pick and prediction for this Rockies vs. Dodgers game.
Kyle Freeland has embraced the challenge that is being a full-time starting pitcher at Coors Field. Players come in and out of Colorado, but Freeland has remained since debuting with the club in 2017. Aside from his 2.85 ERA across 202.1 innings in 2018, he finished every season with an ERA lower than 4.00 and is up to 7.04 in 2026.
After three solid starts to kick off 2026, Freeland has been a mess. He’s allowed 22 earned runs and 33 hits in 17.2 innings and four starts in May. Three of these outings have resulted in a loss to his record. Tonight’s game is against the Dodgers, so it’s likely another loss is coming Freeland’s way.
The Dodgers have a plethora of elite starting pitchers, but it’s Eric Lauer getting the start tonight. The left-hander has a 6.69 ERA overall and has allowed nine earned runs and 10 hits in 9.1 innings and two starts in May. It’s ugly and somehow compares to Freeland’s terrible month. This is the only reason the Dodgers aren’t even greater favorites for this game.
The Los Angeles offense is elite, ranking third in runs per game this season. Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Kyle Tucker, and Will Smith are elite bats. Then there’s role players such as Teoscar Hernandez and Andy Pages who are performing well. There isn’t a weak spot in the lineup, making this an incredibly challenging night for any opponent.
This series is in Los Angeles, which is why the run total isn’t set at over/under a million. The first game of the series concluded 5-3 in favor of the Dodgers, but tonight should have more scoring. Both starters have struggled in May, so it wouldn’t be shocking to see early runs on the board.
Pair this with the lethal Dodgers’ lineup and you’ll get an offensive masterclass. If you’re looking for a pitcher’s duel, look elsewhere.
