KEY GAME INFORMATION
ST LOUIS: 2017 83-79, third place
MANAGER Mike Matheny (seventh season)
ADDITIONS: LF Marcell Ozuna, RHP Miles Mikolas, RHP Luke Gregerson, RHP Bud Norris, INF-OF Yairo Munoz
SUBTRACTIONS: RHP Lance Lynn, OF Stephen Piscotty, OF Randal Grichuk, RHP Seung-hwan Oh, RHP Juan Nicasio, SS Aledmys Diaz, RHP Trevor Rosenthal
OUTLOOK: The Cardinals have had one losing season since the start of the century, but they are facing immense pressure from fans after finishing behind the Cubs and Brewers in 2017. St. Louis missed the playoffs for a second consecutive year, the first time that's happened since 2007-2008. For the Cardinals to snap that postseason "drought," they'll need bounce-back seasons from several players -- including a healthy Wainwright on the mound and Carpenter at the plate. Few expect the Cardinals to cede the NL Central title to Chicago for a third consecutive year without putting up a fight, but St. Louis will need Ozuna and Pham to produce as expected. If they do, and the Cardinals can bring along their reworked pitching staff, the potential for a return to the playoffs is there.
LA DODGERS: 2017 104-58, first place, lost to Houston in World Series
MANAGER Dave Roberts (third season)
ADDITIONS: OF Matt Kemp, RHP Tom Koehler, LHP Scott Alexander, LHP Henry Owens
SUBTRACTIONS: 1B Adrian Gonzalez, RHP Yu Darvish, RHP Brandon Morrow, RHP Brandon McCarthy, LHP Tony Watson, LHP Luis Avilan, LHP Scott Kazmir, LHP Adam Liberatore, OF Andre Ethier, INF Charlie Culberson, OF Curtis Granderson, LHP Grant Dayton, OF Franklin Gutierrez, RHP Josh Ravin
OUTLOOK: The Dodgers are favorites to win a sixth consecutive NL West title with a roster that returns mostly intact. They lost the World Series to Houston in seven games, extending the franchise's drought to 30 years without a championship. Los Angeles had a quiet offseason, other than shedding the contracts of Gonzalez, Kazmir and McCarthy in an effort to lower payroll. The move brings the team under the luxury tax for the first time since 2012, which figures to pay off next winter when a highly anticipated group of big-name free agents becomes available. Kemp has been a surprise in his return to the club. He was acquired from Atlanta as part of the Dodgers' salary dump and figured to be traded. However, he has been a solid performer in spring training. Kershaw anchors the rotation, and Jansen is one of the best closers in the game. A multitude of veterans will be vying for playing time as a result of the team's heavy use of platoons and matchup-driven lineups. Turner suffered a wrist injury late in spring training and will miss the early portion of the season.
PREVIEW
Cardinals-Dodgers Preview
 

LOS ANGELES -- With some newfound momentum gained during a successful homestand, the St. Louis Cardinals will now take their positive energy on the road.

The Dodgers have been searching for consistency in August but appear to be feeling confident after a series victory at Seattle when the offense emerged. The Dodgers' two victories in the interleague series were by 11-1 and 12-1 scores.

Both clubs have playoff aspirations, but still have work to do as they meet at Dodger Stadium Monday night for the opener of a three-game series.

The Dodgers are two games behind National League West leaders Arizona and Colorado, who are tied for the top spot. The Dodgers are searching for their sixth consecutive division title.

The Cardinals just used a 5-2 homestand, against the fading Washington Nationals and the contending Milwaukee Brewers, to continue their rise into playoff contention.

St Louis is also 14-4 in its last 18 games and 21-11 since manager Mike Shildt took over for Mike Matheny last month. The Cardinals sit a half game behind the wild-card contenders and are also four games behind the NL Central-leading Chicago Cubs.

"It's just consistent baseball," St. Louis first baseman Matt Carpenter said, according to mlb.com. "We are going out there every day and giving ourselves a chance to win. Pitching has been good. Bullpen has been good. And (the) lineup has been steady. We are really playing well. If you continue that stretch, no doubt you'll be playing October baseball."

The Dodgers are just 8-9 in August but won their first series of the month by playing well against the contending Mariners.

Justin Turner led the offense with a four-hit game Sunday. He also will enter the series against the Cardinals hitting .462 on a 13-game hitting streak.

Cody Bellinger is on his own hit streak, pushing it to 12 games on Sunday. And the Dodgers have been running wild of late, leading Major League Baseball in steals during August with 19.

And even though the series against the Cardinals will have implications down the stretch, the team might have more of its focus on Kenley Jansen's visit Monday with a cardiologist. Jansen, who is on the disabled list because of an irregular heartbeat, could find out when he might be able to return.

Until then, the Dodgers' bullpen will have to hold things down while they wait for the closer's return. Their latest slip-up came Saturday when Dylan Floro balked in the game-ending run in the 10th inning after Max Muncy hit a game-tying homer off Edwin Diaz in the ninth.

"Now we've got to figure out ways to be on the right end of the one-run games," Turner said, according to mlb.com. "Winning the close games is something we have to do a better job of."

Left-hander Alex Wood (7-6, 3.51 ERA) will start Monday's series opener for the Dodgers and is working on a streak of 11 consecutive outings with three earned runs or less. He has just two career appearances against the Cardinals (one start) and has posted a 2.45 ERA in 7 1/3 innings.

Lefty Austin Gomber (3-0, 2.89) will pitch in the series opener for the Cardinals. The rookie will be making his fifth career start and his first-ever appearance against the Dodgers.
