Brit Devine’s Diamondbacks vs Pirates Preview
We won our 2-unit bet yesterday on Diamondbacks moneyline, and we are going to go right back to it to win 2 more units again today.
Merrill Kelly is on the mound and has been Arizona's best pitcher so far this year.
He draws a very weak Pirates' lineup today that has been a bottom-tier offense all season against right-handed pitching, and has the lowest overall team wOBA in the league over the past 30 days.
Arizona's lineup has much more talent top to bottom and should be able to jump to an early lead against Andrew Heaney, who was just obliterated by the White Sox coming out of the break, and hasn't pitched well in three straight starts.
I project this game around -150.
