Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Cincinnati Reds Prediction
I’m on the under in this one. I know this is at hitter-friendly Great American Ballpark, but this for me sets up as a low-scoring duel. The Diamondbacks have arguably their ace on the bump in Michael Soroka, and Rhett Lowder’s been solid in limited action in Cincinnati. Give me the under in this one.
