Colorado Rockies vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

The Arizona Diamondbacks continue to pile up the wins, and victories like last night only add to their confidence. The Diamondbacks are one of the hotter teams in the second half, and they need to keep winning as they have a shot to win the NL West. The Colorado Rockies have thrown in the towel on the season a while ago, and it's just hard to get behind them with confidence. Jordan Montgomery has had issues at home, but Tanner Gordon is having a rough rookie season. I'll keep riding the hot hand of the Diamondbacks and lay the RL to shave down the juice.
