Hottest team: Dodgers (7-3 last 10)
Following an 8-6 loss to the Brewers to begin their homestand, the Dodgers haven’t lost since by running off five consecutive victories. The last two wins came against the NL East-leading Nationals in low-scoring affairs, while Los Angeles’ pitching staff has given up a total of five runs. In four of the five victories during this hot streak, the Dodgers have allowed two runs or fewer. 19-year old Julio Urias owns an 0-2 record in five starts for the Dodgers, but tossed five scoreless innings in his last outing against Milwaukee as he faces Washington tonight going for the sweep.
Coldest team: Rays (3-7 last 10)
It’s been a bad week for Tampa Bay since grabbing the first two games of its series against Seattle. The Mariners won the final contest at Tropicana Field last Thursday, beginning a tailspin for the Rays. Tampa Bay got swept at home by red-hot San Francisco and has lost the first two games of its series at Cleveland. The Rays have been lit up in this stretch by allowing at least five runs in each of their last six losses, while getting blanked by the Tribe on Tuesday. Chris Archer heads to the mound tonight for the Rays looking to avoid the sweep, as Tampa Bay owns a 1-5 record in his past six starts.
