The PLAY: Arizona Diamondbacks 106 Grant Holmes (RHP), Eduardo Rodriguez (LHP) Must Start
If looking to test the humiliation bounce-back theory, here's your chance, as the D-backs are still licking their wounds from a 17-2 beatdown last night at the bats and gloves of the Braves.
A loss like that often prompts an immediate response, and after sweeping the Tigers at Chase Field earlier this week, this homestand has hardly run aground for Arizona. Eduardo Rodriguez is on the mound for Torey Lovullo after an encouraging five innings of shutout ball vs. the Dodgers last Friday at Chavez Ravine.
We doubt Atlanta does anything close to the damage it caused last night off Ryne Nelson and the bullpen, which lost control of the game in the 5th inning when Atlanta scored eight runs. Friday starter Grant Holmes was perhaps the Braves' weakest link in their first time thru the rotation, ineffective in 5 IP (three runs, five hits, plus a homer) while taking a 4-1 loss last Sunday vs. the Royals. We use +106 here, and as long as the D-backs stay at a plus price we'll stick with what looks like decent value on Arizona in quick-recovery mode. Play D-backs on Money Line
