The Dodgers have won seven of their last ten and come into this series finale with momentum after putting up 14 runs on Friday. They’ve won two of three against Miami and boast the league’s most expensive and arguably deepest roster.
Tony Gonsolin gets the start and has looked solid in limited action so far, posting a 4.09 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in 11 innings. Backed by a power-laden lineup and an elite bullpen, LA remains one of the toughest teams to beat, especially when the bats are this hot.
Betting On Arizona Diamondbacks
- 1XBet Spread:
- 1XBet Over/Under:
- 1XBet Moneyline:
Arizona remains competitive but inconsistent. They’ve split their last ten games and just dropped a series to the Mets. Zac Gallen will take the mound after a dominant outing against New York, where he gave up only two hits over seven innings. He’s 3-4 with a 4.37 ERA on the season.
The D-Backs need better pitching overall to keep up in the ultra-competitive NL West. Their offense hasn’t matched last season’s explosiveness, and losing Jordan Montgomery to injury puts added pressure on arms like Gallen and Burnes.
MatchPlug Prediction For Dodgers vs Diamondbacks
Gallen is capable of keeping Arizona close, but this version of the Dodgers is firing on all cylinders. Gonsolin should be steady enough to let LA’s offense take care of business against a shaky D-Backs bullpen.
Final Prediction: Los Angeles Dodgers Moneyline
