Diamondbacks vs Rockies Prediction

Quintana is an innings eater at this point in his career and Nelson has improved this month, allowing 18 hits and 8 runs in his last 26.1 innings. The Diamondbacks are playing comfortably the better ball. I’m still looking at the over. Despite improved numbers lately, Nelson still has a 7.61 ERA and a .280 allowed batting average in 23.2 home innings. I’m banking on there being offense in this game.
