MLB Betting Trends
Arizona
The D-backs are 1-10 in their last 11 Wednesday games. Arizona is 9-0 in its last nine games at Coors Field.

The Rockies are 8-3 in their last 11 games overall. Colorado is 7-3 in its last 10 home games.
Prediction:
Miller has struggled to put it together in his return from elbow surgery and if anyone is due for a victory, it is Colorado at home versus Arizona. While the Diamondbacks have a strong team, there is no excuse for losing this many straight to one team in its home stadium. I’m taking Colorado to take care of business today.
