#957 ASA PLAY ON Arizona Diamondbacks -1.5 on the Run Line (-120) over Colorado Rockies, Monday at 8:40 PM ET - Arizona is off a tough series at Atlanta but, prior to dropping the finale of a series with the Yankees and then struggling with the red hot Braves, the Diamondbacks were 4-2 on the young season. Now they go from facing one of the best teams (Braves) to facing one of the worst (Rockies). Colorado is 2-8 this season and the Rockies already lost 3 of 4 at Arizona to start this season. However, it wasn't just that the Rockies lost 3 of 4, it was the fact Colorado was outscored by an aggregate of 32 to 14 in that series! On the season, the Diamondbacks have a 3.90 ERA compared to a 7.50 ERA for the Rockies. Additionally, when one looks at the two starting pitchers here, it is evident that Arizona has a huge edge. Zac Gallen is 2-0 with an 0.82 ERA on the season. He'll be on the hill for the Diamondbacks here while the Rockies turn to a struggling Kyle Freeland. The Colorado left-hander has been crushed in both his starts and those were each on the road and now he makes his first home start of the season at hitter-friendly Coors Field! He is allowing 3 earned runs per inning on the season after two starts - yes, a 27.00 ERA! Arizona is hitting .274 on the season and holding opponents to a .240 batting average. Colorado is hitting .240 on the season and their pitchers have an opponents batting average of .312 so far this season. Huge edges here and a road rout is our call. We think we're getting some nice value laying -1.5 runs in this one and only having to lay a very reasonable price in the -120 range with the Diamondbacks. Lay it!
