Arizona Diamondbacks:

Arizona comes into this game with one of the worst road record in Major League Baseball and currently sitting at the bottom of the NL West at 34-76. On Thursday Night the Diamondbacks had a 4-0 lead going to the 9th inning and then let the Giants rally back to score 4 runs in the 9th and then the losing run in the top of the 10th inning.

The lefty Caleb Smith will get the start for Arizona in this matchup. In his 12 starts this season, he’s 1-8 overall with a 6.31 ERA. He’s yet to win a game on the road going 0-5 with a 9.00 ERA. Smith only face the Padres once in 2021 where he gave up 4 runs in just 3 innings.

The Diamondbacks are 4-16 straight up in their last 20 games on the road and the total has gone over in 8 of Arizona’s last 12 games against an opponent in the NL West.

San Diego Padres:

San Diego comes into this game just 4-6 overall in their last 10 games and in desperate need for series sweep. This is the perfect opportunity to pick up 3 wins in a row to try to get closer into that second spot in the NL West.

The Padres have one of the best home records in the league, but they’ll have the struggling Ryan Weathers take the mound. In his last 3 starts, he has a 7.20 ERA with a 1.9 WHIP. Weathers is known to attack the zone, so it will be interesting how this matchup plays out in this bounce back start.

The Padres are 6-2 straight up in their last 8 games when playing at home against the Diamondbacks and the total has gone over in 5 of San Diego’s last 5 games.
