The set-up: Here's the perfect spot to the pull the trigger on the hungry underdog side in my opinion. The Diamondbacks hand the ball to ace Zach Greinke, while the home side counters with Masahiro Tanaka.

The pitchers: Greinke (10-4, 2.87 ERA) is only three wins shy of 200 for his career. Over his last three he's 0-1 with a 3.79 ERA. Clearly the vet won't be lacking for motivation this afternoon.

Tanaka (7-6, 4.79) enters off the worst start of his career, allowing 12 runs off 12 hits over three innings in Boston on Thursday (he has a 9.55 ERA over his last four starts.)

The pick: Arizona picked up the 4-2 win in yesterday's series opener and I believe the stage is set for another upset here. The Diamondbacks can't take the foot off the gas here as they sit only three games out of the second wild-card spot. New York is trending in the opposite direction finally, having dropped six of its last nine. Great spot bet on the "hungrier" side.
