Dodgers Betting Preview

Los Angeles is 5-4 after losing to Arizona. LAD surprisingly hasn’t been able to match the DBacks energy offensive over the past two games, and they’ll look to clean things up here.  The Los Angeles offense is scoring 4.45 runs per game, while batting .251, with a .379 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 3.76 ERA, with a 1.03 WHIP. Freddie Freeman recorded multiple hits for the fourth time in six games last time out. 

Michael Grove (0-0, 6.75 ERA, 4 Ks) will take the mound for Los Angeles. The rookie pitcher has been called upon early with injuries to starters Walker Buehler and Tony Gonsolin on the shelf. Grove struck out four in four innings of work versus Colorado in his debut.  

Diamondbacks Betting Preview

Arizona comes in at 5-4 after taking game three from Los Angeles last night. The Diamondbacks have been a thorn in the Dodgers’ side early on this season, and they’ll look to win a third straight here. The Arizona offense is scoring 4.14 runs per game, while batting .253, with a .299 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 5.19 ERA, with a 1.54 WHIP. Evan Longoria (.429)turned the clock back with a three-hit performance last night. 

Ryne Nelson (0-0, 5.40 ERA, 3 Ks) will take the hill for Arizona. The rookie pitcher survived his season debut at San Diego, giving up three runs in five full innings of work. 

Los Angeles vs Arizona Trends

Los Angeles is 5-3 against the spread this season, with a 3-4-1 over/under record. Arizona is 5-3 ATS, with a 4-3-1 O/U record.

Corey's Free Pick

Logically, you’d like to trust the Dodgers to avoid a third straight loss to Arizona, but the hosts have seemed to have LAD’s number once again this season. With two rookie arms slated to start, the fireworks could start sooner rather later, and I like taking the over here in hopes of another back-and-forth tilt.

The pick in this article is the opinion of the writer, not a PickDawgz site consensus.
