The Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks are in a heated battle for the final National League wild-card spot, which means Tuesday’s contest between the clubs has major playoff implications.
- The Rockies are 1-5 SU in their last six games against the Diamondbacks.
- The Diamondbacks are 9-1 SU and ATS in their last 10 games against teams with winning records.
- The Rockies are 7-0 SU and ATS in their last seven games on the road.
Sportsbook opened the Rockies as +114 road underdogs with a total of 9.
Jon Gray and Taijuan Walker will get the start for the Rockies and D-backs, respectively. Gray (7-4, 4.07 ERA) owns a 2.55 ERA over his last seven starts, but one of his two losses in that span came against the Diamondbacks in a setback on September 2. The hurler allowed three runs on five hits in five innings at Coors Field in that outing.
Walker (9-7, 3.33) has been fantastic for the Diamondbacks of late, going 3-0 with a 0.79 ERA over his last four outings, all of which have resulted in Arizona wins. The 25-year-old has made five career starts against the Rockies and is 2-1 with a 2.32 ERA against them.
The OVER tends to be a fantastic play when the Diamondbacks play at home. In Arizona’s last eight at Chase Field, the OVER is 6-2.
