7:15PM EST: ATL/SD Under 7.5 (2 Units).
ATL SP Reynaldo Lopez would lead the league in ERA if he qualified. He has a 1.71 ERA this season and has allowed 1 run or less in 10 of his 16 starts. He's allowed more than 2 runs just once and it came back in April. The Padres offense has scored just 5 runs over their last 4 games and rank 29th in OPS in July.
SD SP Dylan Cease has battled some consistency issues but boasts a 3.69 ERA at Home. He's allowed 3ER or less in 6 of 9 Home starts and 4ER or less in 8 of 9. His most recent outing was a quality start, allowing 3 runs across 7IP at Home to a hot Diamondbacks offense. He tossed 7 scoreless against the Nationals allowing just 1 hit in the Home start prior as well.
10:10PM: TOR/AZ Under 9 (2 Units).
TOR SP Jose Berrios has had a tough go of it in the Month of July, allowing 4 and 5 ER. This is a man who's allowed 2 ER or less in 12 of his 19 starts. You also have to go back to 2018 for the last time Berrios allowed more than 3 ER in 3 consecutive starts. Arizona's bats have also cooled considerably after a hot start to July. They stole one from Toronto last night, scoring 5 runs on just 6 hits. 2 reliable relievers; Trevor Richards and Chad Green just lost the strike zone at the end of the game. They allowed a combined 3 runs on just 1 hit and 5 walks. Prior to yesterday's game Arizona’s scored 1 and 2 runs in 2 of their last 3 games. They have just 25 hits combined over their last 4 games.
ARI Rookie Yilber Diaz makes his 2nd MLB start after dazzling in his debut, holding ATL to 1 run across 6 innings. He racked up 13K's over 6 shutout innings in his final AAA start before being called up. He was robbed of a win and us a +160 ticket and Perfect 3-0 night after a blown 2-run save with nobody on and 2 outs in the 9th. With yesterday's come from behind win the Diamondbacks top relievers got the night off and can back Diaz tonight.
