Preview

The Arizona Diamondbacks and the Los Angeles Dodgers will meet again to play a 3-game of the series at the Chase Field. The Diamondbacks lost their last series against the Rockies while the Dodgers beat the Padres 2 of 3 times to take the series and are 9-2 vs Dbacks this season.

 

Los Angeles Dodgers

The Dodgers get here with a 94-43 record and have won 4 of their last 6 games. The team is averaging 5.44 runs per game and they're batting for .263 AVG, 756 runs scored in 1241 hits and 190 home runs, ranking #1 in offense in the league. Mookie Bets leads the team batting for .266 AVG. and 33 home runs. Trea Turner has 96 RBI. 

Defensively they are allowing 3.20 runs per game and rank #1 in the league. Julio Urias leads the team with a 2.30 ERA, 144 strikeouts and 16 wins recorded.

Probable Pitcher:  Tyler Anderson (14-3, 2.73 ERA)

Anderson will be on the mound in the 1st game of the series for the Dodgers. Anderson allowed three runs on eight hits and struck out three without walking a batter over seven innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Giants. He has a record of 5-3 with an ERA of 5.22 and 83 strikeouts in 16 appearances against the Diamondbacks in his career.

Arizona Diamondbacks

The Diamondbacks get here with a 65-73 record and have lost their last 4 games. The team is averaging 4.50 runs per game and they're batting for .233 AVG, 626 runs scored in 1069 hits and 154 home runs, ranking #11 in offense in the league behind the Milwaukee Brewers. Christian Walker leads with 32 home runs and 79 RBI and Ketel Marte is batting for .261 AVG. 

Defensively they are allowing 4.58 runs per game and rank #21 in the league. Merrill Kelly leads the team with a 2.94 ERA and 147 strikeouts and 12 wins recorded.

Probable Pitcher:  Ryne Nelson (1-0, 0.00 ERA)

Nelson will be on the mound in the 1st game of the series for the Diamondbacks. Nelson will unsurprisingly receive another turn through the rotation after he dazzled in his MLB debut Sept. 5 against the Padres, striking out seven over seven scoreless frames in a winning effort.

 

BETTING TRENDS

LA Dodgers are 8-0 SU in their last 8 games against Arizona.

The total has gone OVER in 4 of LA Dodgers' last 6 games on the road.

The total has gone UNDER in 7 of LA Dodgers' last 8 games when playing on the road against Arizona.

Arizona are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games.

The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Arizona's last 5 games against LA Dodgers.

Arizona are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games at home.

 

Prediction

The Dodgers became the first team to clinched a playoff spot after beating the Padres in the weekend series. For the series opener against the Dbacks they'll send Tyler Anderson who's having a great season and has dominated the Dbacks. Ryne Nelson will face the Dodgers after a great performance vs Padres but the Dodgers are a total different team. However I expect a low scoring game as the under has cashed big time when these teams have met so go with the under.

PICK: Under 9 (-110)
