Colorado @ Los Angeles preview

Last Meeting ( Apr 24, 2016 ) LA Dodgers 12, Colorado 10

One day after ending their four-game skid, the Colorado Rockies attempt to halt the Los Angeles Dodgers' home winning streak and slow down Corey Seager on Monday as the National League West rivals begin a three-game series at Dodger Stadium. Colorado avoided being swept in San Diego on Sunday, topping the Padres 10-3 for just its second win in seven road contests.

Carlos Gonzalez posted his second multi-homer performance of the season with a pair of blasts and Nolan Arenado belted his 18th shot to grab a share of the major-league lead. The Rockies will have their hands full with Seager, who recorded five home runs and seven RBIs during Los Angeles' three-game sweep of Atlanta over the weekend. The 22-year-old, who leads the Dodgers with 14 blasts, has driven in 11 runs in his last six contests. Los Angeles will begin its first series of the post-Carl Crawford era as it parted ways with the veteran outfielder by designating him for assignment Sunday.
