Dodgers at Diamondbacks Predictions

The Dodgers are sending right-handed pitcher Lance Lynn to the mound. Lynn has a 13-11 win-loss record this season with an ERA of 5.73. He has started 32 games this season, with the Dodgers winning 15 of those games. On the other side, the Diamondbacks are starting with right-handed pitcher Brandon Pfaadt.

Looking at the offenses, the Dodgers have been more potent this season. They rank 2nd in runs scored and 7th in batting average in the league. Their key player, Mookie Betts, has hit 39 home runs and has 107 runs batted in. On the other hand, the Diamondbacks rank 14th in runs scored and 14th in batting average. Their key player, Christian Walker, has hit 33 home runs and has 103 runs batted in.

Dodgers at Diamondbacks Picks

Given the Dodgers’ superior offensive record, their better performance as the favorite team this season, and the strength of their key players like Mookie Betts, we like their chances of winning tonight. That would put the series at 2-1 in favor of the Diamondbacks, but LAD should put up a fight with their backs against the wall.

The Pick: Los Angeles Dodgers -126 (FanDuel)
