Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Colorado Rockies Prediction

I’m on the over in this one. I just have zero faith in this starting pitching matchup with Brandon Pfaadt making his Coors Field debut and also in light of his recent issues. On the other side, Antonio Senzatela’s been getting cranked at home and I think the Diamondbacks get to him here as well. Give me the over in this one.
