The Los Angeles Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks meet Saturday in MLB action at Chase Field. The Dodgers look for a win after winning eight of their last 10 games. The Diamondbacks are still looking for their first win since June 1.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have scored eight runs in their last three games and four or more runs in four of their last eight games. The Dodgers have won five straight games when scoring four or more runs. Justin Turner leads the Dodgers with 64 hits and 34 RBI while Mookie Betts and Chris Taylor have combined for 114 hits and 61 RBI. Walker Buehler gets the ball, and he is 6-0 with a 2.38 ERA and 77 strikeouts this season. Buehler is 2-0 with a 2.47 ERA and 57 strikeouts in his career against the Diamondbacks.
The Arizona Diamondbacks have scored 10 runs in their last three games and three or less runs in seven of their last 11 games. The Diamondbacks haven’t won a game when scoring three or less runs since April 4. Pavin Smith leads the Diamondbacks with 68 hits and 24 RBI while Eduardo Escobar and David Peralta have combined for 126 hits and 80 RBI. Matt Peacock gets the ball, and he is 2-4 with a 5.26 ERA and 27 strikeouts this season. This will be Peacock’s second career game against the Dodgers.
The Dodgers are 53-26 in their last 79 road games and 86-42 in their last 128 overall. The Diamondbacks are 3-14 in their last 17 home games and 11-40 in their last 51 overall. The under is 3-0-1 in Dodgers last 4 overall. The over is 6-1 in Diamondbacks last 7 overall. The Dodgers are 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Arizona and 13-3 in the last 16 meetings.
As I’ve said many times in the past, the Diamondbacks are fade material until further notice. This team hasn’t won a game in over two weeks and the pitching staff gets rocked more times than not. The Dodgers are heating up and Buehler has been money all year. There’s no backing the Diamondbacks. Give me the Dodgers, and I’ll lay the RL for max betting value.
