I will back the team with the second-best record in the NL to avoid getting swept on Thursday. Arizona has won 23 out of their 31 games against teams with a losing record. Arizona is also the best money team in MLB in total money profit this season.
Diamondbacks are 5-1 in the last starts made by Ryne Nelson, and has pitched well over that stretch only allowing three homes in last 36.1 innings and a 3.72 ERA since the beginning of May
The Phillies will be starting Aaron Nola who has allowed at least one home run in 10 straight starts. Phillies are also 2-4 in Nola's last six starts and he has a 4.70 ERA since the beginning of May.
Both offenses have been hot averaging more than six runs per game over their last 10. Dbacks 5.21 bullpen era over that stretch and 7.22 ERA over Phillies.
