The Arizona Diamondbacks were just swept over the weekend by the Atlanta Braves and have now lost 4 straight but they head to Colorado tonight to open a 3-game set with the Rockies and that should get them back on track. The D-backs have already taken 3 of 4 this year from the Rocks, outscoring them 32-14. They are expected to have Zac Gallen on the hill and he has been delivering as usual. Gallen has been almost unhittable. He is 2-0 with an ERA of just 0.82 and a WHIP of 1.00, and that is scary. The expected starter for the Rockies is Kyle Freeland and if this isn’t a pitching mismatch, I don’t know what is. Freeland is 0-2 with a bloated ERA of 27.00 (that is not a typo) and a 4.06 WHIP – not good. If the altitude doesn’t get to Arizona, the Snakes cruise to a victory.
TONIGHT’S PICK: ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS
