Reds vs Diamondbacks Analysis
After losing their last series 2-1 to the Pirates, the Diamondbacks travel to Cincinnati to take on the Reds. The Reds lost their previous series 3-1 to the Nationals and are on a three-game losing streak.
This is the first matchup between these two teams this season. The Reds are -125 home favorites, the run line is 1.5, and the total is 9.5 runs.
Arizona Diamondbacks Betting Preview
Arizona is 3-7 in their last 10 games and they are 26-29 on the season. The Diamondbacks have a 2.5-game lead for fourth place in the NL West over the Rockies.
The Diamondbacks are 12-13 when playing on the road this season and they are 28-16 covering the run line as an underdog this season.
Madison Bumgarner will make the start for the Diamondbacks tonight. He is 2-4 on the season and the Diamondbacks are 5-6 in games he has started this season.
He has pitched to a tune of a 3.31 ERA, a 1.20 WHIP, and a 4.92 FIP this season. Bumgarner has allowed a run in every start so far this season and he is coming off back-to-back games where he let up seven hits in six innings.
Cincinnati Reds Betting Preview
The Reds are still in the basement of the NL Central but they have been playing competitive baseball lately.
They are 5-5 in their last 10 games but they dropped their last three games on the road vs the Nationals. Cincinnati is 18-35 on the season and they are 10-15 at home this season.
Hunter Greene will make the start for the Reds tonight at home against the Pirates. Greene is 2-7 on the season with a 6.19 ERA, a 1.52 WHIP, and a 6.10 FIP.
The 22-year-old has had flashes of brilliance along with flashes that he is certainly still a rookie trying to learn and compete at the big league level. After two starts of allowing just one run, Greene has allowed five and four runs in his last two starts respectively.
Reds vs Diamondbacks Prediction
Both teams hit better than they pitch, despite the fact the Diamondbacks’ offense is one of the worst in baseball. However, the Red’s offense comes alive at times and this is an interesting matchup to see how they fare against a solid pitcher.
For this game, I like the Reds team total of over 4.5 -124. For my 4% MLB play of the day, check out my handicapper profile on Sportsmemo, I am on a 75% run.
Prediction: Reds Team Total Over 4.5 -124
