On the other side, the Diamondbacks have been profitable with Greinke on the mound of late, despite struggling as a team overall. They’re 6-2 in his last eight starts, are 4-1 in his last five starts versus a team with a losing record, and have won four of his last five outings following a quality start in his last appearance.
OUR PICK: The Diamondbacks have lost four straight games and are just 8-20 in their last 28 home games. But Greinke has pitched much better of late, allowing just four runs on 10 hits in his last two starts. The price on Arizona is too steep on the money line, but the Diamondbacks could breakout tonight and if that happens, bettors can capitalize while receiving plus odds on the runline.
