Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (5-2) and Arizona Diamondbacks (3-4) meet Friday for the 2nd game of a 4-game series. First pitch from Chase Field is set for 9:40 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Dodgers lead 3-2; Los Angeles won the 2022 season series 14-5.

The Dodgers won 5-2 as -155 road favorites Thursday in the series opener. Los Angeles has had solid pitching and batting so far in the season, ranking 2nd in HR (14), 2nd in RBIs (42), 3rd in team ERA (2.14), and T-4th in saves (3).

Arizona was able to steal 2 games from the Dodgers on the road in their season-opening series, winning in 2 low-scoring battles. Pitching for Arizona has proven to be inconsistent so far this season, as it has allowed 5 or more runs in 5 games and a single run in its other 2 games.

Dodgers at Diamondbacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 5, Diamondbacks 2

Moneyline

AVOID.

The Dodgers (-220) have not been as dominant as normal vs. Arizona as of late, winning just 6 of the last 10 meetings. Given how Arizona has performed against L.A. this season this line is too risky as a standalone bet, so look for better value on the run line or the total.

Run line/Against the spread

LEAN DODGERS -1.5 (-135).

Four of the last 10 meetings between these clubs has been a 1-run game came down to within 1 run, and they were all in Los Angeles. The Dodgers have won 3 of the last 5 meetings between these squads this season, and all came by 3 or more runs.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 8.5 (-105).

The Under is 7-3 in their last 10 meetings between these clubs and 12-3 in their last 15 meetings. The Under is 5-5 in both the Dodgers’ and the Diamondbacks’ last 10 games dating back to last season.

Dodgers at Diamondbacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 5, Diamondbacks 3

Moneyline

With May seemingly having a chance to pitch deeper into games, I’ll back the DODGERS (-155) in this NL West bout. Los Angeles also has plenty of success when facing Kelly on the mound.

Run line/Against the spread

DODGERS -1.5 (+105) has decent value as they have the advantage on the mound for Thursday night. The Dodgers are also 41-12 in the last 53 meetings, and we only need them to win by 2-plus runs to cover the spread.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

UNDER 9 (-115) is the pick in this game with May limiting the lineup of the Diamondbacks. There were 3 or fewer runs scored in 2 of the first 4 meetings between these teams to begin the season.

The Under is 10-1 in the last 11 meetings in Arizona and 12-3 in the last 15 meetings overall.

Los Angeles Dodgers at Arizona Diamondbacks odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Los Angeles Dodgers at Arizona Diamondbacks odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (63-43) and Arizona Diamondbacks (33-72) play the rubber match of their three-game series Sunday. First pitch is scheduled for 4:10 p.m. ET at Chase Field. Let’s analyze the lines around the Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Dodgers LHP Julio Urias (12-3, 3.54 ERA) makes his 22nd start of the year. He has a 1.06 WHIP, 1.8 BB/9 and 9.5 K/9 through 124 2/3 IP.

  • Urias has allowed 2 or fewer earned runs in five of his last six starts.
  • He went 6 2/3 innings in his only start this season against the Diamondbacks allowing 1 run on 3 hits and striking out 8 without issuing a walk. He picked up the win in a 9-1 victory.

Diamondbacks LHP Caleb Smith (3-7, 4.61 ERA) makes his 12th start. He has a 1.32 WHIP, 4.5 BB/9 and 10.3 K/9 through 84 IP.

  • This will be his third start of the year against the Dodgers. He lasted 1 inning and allowed 9 runs on 6 hits and 3 walks in a 22-1 loss July 10 in Los Angeles last time he faced them.
  • Arizona is 2-9 when Smith starts this season.

Prediction

Dodgers 5, Diamondbacks 3

Money line (ML)

The Dodgers are now 10-2 against the Diamondbacks. Their 30 road wins are third-most in the majors, trailing just the Milwaukee Brewers and San Francisco Giants. While they have lost Urias’ last two starts they are 15-6 when he is on the mound, including a 9-3 record on the road.

The Diamondbacks had their five-game home win streak snapped Saturday. You can’t ignore the fact they are 2-9 with Smith starting, and that he has allowed 5 or more runs in three of his last four starts.

Take the DODGERS (-270).

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The Dodgers are 50-56 ATS overall, and 25-30 ATS on the road, and will have to win by at least 3 runs to cover this afternoon. They have won by at least 3 runs only twice in their last 13 games, although six of their 10 wins over Arizona would cover that spread.

The Diamondbacks are 51-54 ATS overall but 28-23 ATS at Chase Field. Five of their nine losses with Smith starting have been by at least 3 runs, but they only have three such losses in their last 12 games.

While I expect Arizona to lose outright, I like them for the cover with the larger spread. Take the DIAMONDBACKS +2.5 (-125).

Over/Under (O/U)

Angel Stadium is the only ballpark with a higher Over percentage than Chase Field’s 62.0% this season.

Both games in the series have had double-digit totals, and seven of the 12 games between the two teams have had totals of 10 or more.

That said, only three of Urias’ last 10 starts and three of Smith’s 11 starts have had totals of 10 or more runs.

Take UNDER 9.5 (-120).

Los Angeles Dodgers at Arizona Diamondbacks odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Los Angeles Dodgers at Arizona Diamondbacks odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Dodgers (62-43) try to even the series against the Arizona Diamondbacks (33-71) Saturday after dropping Friday’s opener, 6-5, in extra innings. First pitch is at 8:10 p.m. at Chase Field. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks odds with MLB picks and predictions.

The Dodgers have not announced their starter as of publication. It was originally going to be RHP Josiah Gray, whom they traded to the Washington Nationals to acquire Max Scherzer.

This season, the Dodger bullpen is 20-23 with a 3.66 ERA over 366 2/3 innings pitched. The collective staff out of the ‘pen has a 1.29 WHIP, 9.7 K/9 and 4.1 BB/9

RHP Merrill Kelly is the projected starting pitcher for the Diamondbacks. He is 7-7 with a 4.39 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, 7.7 K/9 and 2.0 BB/9 in 123 IP over 21 starts.

Kelly has won five straight decisions and the Diamondbacks are 6-1 in his last seven starts, the one loss coming on the road July 11 to the Dodgers. He has a 2.62 ERA through 44 2/3 IP across that seven-game span.

Chase Field has the third-highest Over percentage in the majors this season at 61.2%.

However, only one of the Dodgers’ last six games has had a total of more than 9 runs.

Take OVER 10 (-105).

The Los Angeles Dodgers (43-27) attempt to complete a three-game sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks (20-52) Sunday. First pitch is scheduled for 4:10 p.m. ET at Chase Field. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Prediction

Dodgers 5, Diamondbacks 2

Money line (ML)

The Dodgers have beaten the Diamondbacks in all six meetings this season and have won eight of their last 10 games overall. They have won both of Gonsolin’s previous starts this year.

The Diamondbacks are reeling, having lost 16 in a row and 30 of their last 32 games – they are simply not a team you can bet on to win right now.

Take the DODGERS (-200).

FANTASY BASEBALL: Serious about winning your league? Sign up for BaseballHQ.com to dominate the competition. Subscribe now!

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The Dodgers are 5-1 ATS against the Diamondbacks this season and have covered the spread in seven of their last nine games.

The Diamondbacks have covered the spread only once in their last seven games and only three times in their last 15. They are 11-17 ATS in divisional games.

Take the DODGERS -1.5 (-125).

Over/Under (O/U)

Saturday’s game went over the projected total but the Dodgers have seen only one of their last six games do so. Both of Gonsolin’s starts this season have had totals of four or fewer runs.

Only one ballpark has a higher over percentage than Chase Field’s 67.7%, but the Diamondbacks are now down another offensive player with C Carson Kelly fracturing his wrist Saturday night. They have not scored more than three runs in any game against the Dodgers this season and have not scored more than three runs in the final game of their last four series.

Take UNDER 9.5 (-110).
