Dodgers at Diamondbacks: Odds, lines, picks and betting tips

MLB odds courtesy of BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports for a full list. Odds last updated at 8:30 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Dodgers 8, Diamondbacks 6

Moneyline (ML)

The Dodgers are again big favorites in Arizona at -223 while the Diamondbacks are +195. Arizona has lost five in a row and have only won twice in the last 20 games, while the Dodgers have won eight of 10. There isn’t much of a payout, but betting the Diamondbacks seems foolish right now. Take the DODGERS -223.

New to sports betting? A $10 bet on the Dodgers to win returns a profit of $4.48.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The Dodgers are -2.5 (100), a big spread Wednesday, with the Diamondbacks at +2.5 (-121). The Dodgers have the fifth-highest cover percentage in baseball this season and the Diamondbacks have the seventh-worst. Arizona’s offense has been bad, as has their bullpen play. Arizona has managed to cover both games in this series, and the offense has improved a little bit. Because of the large spread, take the DIAMONDBACKS +2.5 (-121).

Over/Under (O/U)

The total is 9.5 runs for the series finale, -110 on either side. They have combined for more than nine runs in each of the first two games of the series. Three of Bumgarner’s starts have gone for more than nine runs combined. Take the OVER 9.5 RUNS.

The Dodgers are again big favorites in Arizona at -278 while the Diamondbacks are +240. Arizona has lost four in a row and have only won twice in the last 19 games, while the Dodgers have won seven of 10. There isn’t much of a payout, but betting the Diamondbacks seems foolish right now. Take the DODGERS -278.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The Dodgers are -2.5 (-110), a big spread Wednesday, with the Diamondbacks at +2.5 (-110). The Dodgers have the fifth-highest cover percentage in baseball this season and the Diamondbacks have the seventh-worst. Arizona’s offense has been bad, as has their bullpen play. Arizona got the extra-inning cover on Tuesday but have struggled this year against Kershaw. Take the DODGERS -2.5 (-110).

Over/Under (O/U)

The total is set at nine runs, -110 on either side. The two teams combined for 19 runs Tuesday night but that was, by far, an aberration for Arizona. Only one of Kershaw’s starts this season has seen the total go higher than nine runs. Take the UNDER 9 RUNS.

MLB odds courtesy of BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports for a full list. Odds last updated at 4:55 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Diamondbacks 5, Dodgers 4

Moneyline (ML)

The Dodgers (-143) are favored Saturday after splitting the first two games of the series. The Diamondbacks’ bats woke up late in Friday’s 5-3 win, hoping to ride that success into the weekend. Weaver struggled in his first start 2020, his first start since coming back from Tommy John surgery. He was arguably Arizona’s best pitcher before suffering the injury and should fare better in his second start. Expect ARIZONA (+130) to give LA a second straight loss, and give you great value on the moneyline. Take the DIAMONDBACKS +130.

New to sports betting? A winning $10 bet on Arizona will profit $13.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The Dodgers (-1.5, +105) were in position to win Friday, but the bullpen couldn’t hold on to a lead and now they turn to Urias. In his last start, the young southpaw allowed eight baserunners (five hits, three walks) in five innings. After taking advantage Friday, the Diamondbacks will take advantage on Saturday. Take the DIAMONDBACKS +1.5 (-125).

Over/Under (O/U)

The O/U is 9.5, with the Over odds at -105 and the Under at -115. After pushing the nine-run total Thursday and going Under Friday, Arizona’s games have gone Under in five of its eight games. That will continue Saturday. Take the UNDER 9.5 (-115).

Dodgers at Diamondbacks: Projected starting pitchers

RHP Tony Gonsolin vs. RHP Zac Gallen

Gonsolin in 2019: 4-2, 2.93 ERA (13 ER, 40 IP) in 11 games, including six starts

• Gonsolin makes his first appearance of 2020 in what is expected to be a bullpen game for the Dodgers.
• Diamondbacks 3B Eduardo Escobar is 3-for-5 with two home runs and five RBIs in his career vs. Gonsolin.

Gallen this season: 0-0, 2.25 ERA (1 ER, 4 IP), 6 K in one start

• Gallen is 0-1 with a 3.48 ERA in two career starts against Los Angeles with 11 strikeouts in 10 1/3 innings.

Prediction

Diamondbacks 6, Dodgers 3

Moneyline (ML)

The Dodgers (-134) are slight favorites vs. the DIAMONDBACKS (+125), who look to avoid a three-game skid. Gallen has been very good for Arizona (2.83 ERA, 9 starts) since being acquired in a trade-deadline deal from the Miami Marlins last season. That, combined with a bullpen game for the Dodgers, makes the DIAMONDBACKS (+125) the BEST BET.

New to sports betting? A $10 bet on Arizona will profit $12.50 if it pulls off the upset.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

Take the DIAMONDBACKS +1.5 (-129). The Dodgers are -1.5 (+105). After losing Thursday night, Arizona will ride Gallen to not only cover the +1.5 line, but win straight up.

Over/Under (O/U)

The O/U is 9.5 with odds of -110 on both sides. After the O/U 9 pushed on my pick Thursday night – unless you waited and let the line climb to 9.5 before wagering – Arizona’s pitching will keep the Los Angeles offense in check Friday. Arizona’s games have gone Under in four of their seven games this season. Take the UNDER 9.5 (-110).
