Colorado at Arizona Diamondbacks: Arizona-135....
On the mound for the Diamondbacks will be Merrill Kelly, Kelly has been a reliable asset for Arizona’s pitching staff, going 6 plus innings in 5 of his last 7 starts. The right-hander has been among the best pitchers in the majors in June, improving to 3-0 with a 0.81 ERA after yielding three hits and fanning five across 7.2 innings in last Wednesday’s victory at Philadelphia.
Senzatela was rocked in his last outing where he went 4 innings versus the Cubs, giving up 1 home run and 8 runs, while he struck out 2 and walked 4. Senzatela has been struggling on the season, owning a low 4.98 K/9 and a high 4.08 BB/9, while he owns a sub-par 5.48 ERA and 5.78 FIP. Senzatela struggles to produce strikeouts while giving up walks at a high rate, which is a very dangerous combo. The Arizona Diamondbacks look to stay hot after winning eight of their last 11 games. The Diamondbacks have scored 18 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in eight of their last 10 games. The Arizona Diamondbacks have won six of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs....
