L.A. is -257 on the moneyline, and the total has been bumped up to 9.5 given the hitter-friendly weather.
My Diamondbacks vs. Dodgers predictions and MLB picks fancy the home team and the Under for Saturday, July 11.
Who will win Diamondbacks vs Dodgers today: Dodgers -1.5 (-122)
The Los Angeles Dodgers essentially punted Game 1 (a 9-3 loss) after Shohei Ohtani was scratched from his scheduled start. Combine that with Thursday's off day, and the Boys in Blue are well-positioned to strike back tonight.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto (2.49 ERA) has great results against these hitters (.172 AVG, .505 OPS) and represents an enormous starting pitching edge over Brandon Pfaadt (4.95 FIP, 95 Stuff+).
The Arizona Diamondbacks have been entirely ineffective against right-handed pitching (70 wRC+), and L.A. will plate enough runs against Pfaadt to create separation. Play the run line to -135.
COVERS INTEL: Yoshinobu Yamamoto will positively cook with his unhittable splitter (19 wRC+) against a Diamondbacks lineup with the worst results in the league against the offering (-13 runs above average).
Diamondbacks vs Dodgers Over/Under pick: Under 9.5 (-138)
L.A. has played to the Under in 10 of Yamamoto's last 15 starts. He's in peak form, posting a 0.77 WHIP and .163 AVG against in his last eight starts, and will prove length after Friday's bullpen game.
The Dodgers are floundering at the plate with a 99 wRC+ against RHP in the last 14 days. Arizona's bullpen has been lights out in that span (2.91 ERA, 3.05 SIERA), which compensates somewhat for Pfaadt's ineffectiveness.
Arizona has played in low-scoring games outside of hitter-friendly Chase Field (103 Park Factor), going 3-13 O/U in its last 16 road games.
