Pirates vs Diamondbacks Prediction

Nelson has been solid this season for the Diamondbacks, but they were just swept by the Astros and now traded away one of their best players in Josh Naylor. Are the Diamondbacks selling? That can’t be great for the locker room. Burrows isn’t a pitcher I’m excited to get behind, but the Pirates just swept one of the best teams in baseball. I wouldn’t be shocked if the Diamondbacks come out flat. Give me the Pirates at home on Friday night.
