You can bet the Phillies-Diamondbacks series this week with a special eye on Tuesday’s game.
Arizona is not a terrible team this season (36-42) and Zack Greinke is pitching quite well ((10-3, 3.61), especially on a team that is below the .500 mark.
Greinke is so good that the Diamondbacks are a -220 home favorite against Philadelphia Tuesday with a total of 8. They are, after all, 12-2 in his last 14 starts.
Greinke gave up seven hits and a pair of walks over 5.2 innings Thursday in Coors Field, but limited the Rockies to three runs. He struck out four. (Thu Jun 23)
He has pitched especially well versus the Phillies current starting roster, allowing just 13 hits on 92 at bats with a single home run.
It’s also interesting to note that Arizona was 6-1 in this series heading into Monday. Philadelphia is 3-11 in their last 14 road games.
