The Dodgers open this four-game set at Coors Field with the best record in the National League West at 14-4, a three-game winning streak, and an 8-2 mark over their last 10. Colorado is 7-12, fourth in the division, but it did come home off a 3-2 win in Houston on Thursday. First pitch is set for 8:40 p.m. ET in Denver, with SportsNet LA and Rockies.TV carrying the game.

San Diego rolls into Anaheim at 13-6, second in the NL West, and carrying an eight-game winning streak after finishing off a sweep of Seattle on Thursday.

Toronto is still missing too much lineup depth, and that has shown up in these low-scoring losses, while Arizona is getting steadier starting pitching and more production at home.

Chicago opens this Friday matchup at 6-13, last in the AL Central, and carrying a three-game losing streak after getting swept by Tampa Bay.
