Dodgers vs Diamondbacks Prediction 

Los Angeles comes into this matchup looking to secure the series win and they have scored 6+ runs in three of their last four games. The Dodgers are 20-11 on the road this year, while the Diamondbacks are 19-12 at home. Arizona has lost four of their last five games and they have scored one or fewer in three of those games. The Diamondbacks are starting Nelson, who has allowed 3+ earned runs in three of his last four starts, while Wrobleski has allowed 5+ earned runs in two of his last four. Neither starter has been great recently, so I will take a shot on the Diamondbacks and the plus money.
