Diamondbacks vs Tigers Prediction

Mize was the better pitcher last season, but I’m not getting enough bang for my buck to pull the trigger. The Diamondbacks finally got on the board with a win where the offense broke out and that could have a carryover effect. Pfaadt’s season numbers from last season aren’t great, but all of those hiccups came on the road. At home through 97.1 innings, Pfaadt had a 3.24 ERA and .250 allowed batting average. A pick-’em spot. I’m going to back arizona at home.
