The Diamondbacks have been fade material for months and one win doesn’t change things. In fact, the Diamondbacks haven’t won back-to-back games since May 10-11. The Padres are still head and shoulders the better team here and they have a CY Young candidate on the mound in Darvish. Give me the Padres and the RL for max betting value.
