The Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies meet Sunday in MLB action at Coors Field. The Arizona Diamondbacks need a win after losing 7 of their last 10 games. The Colorado Rockies look for a win after splitting their last 8 games.
The Arizona Diamondbacks have scored 16 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 5 of their last 10 games. The Diamondbacks have won 7 of their last 10 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Ketel Marte leads the Diamondbacks with 64 hits and 22 RBI, while Daulton Varsho and David Peralta have combined for 115 hits and 64 RBI. Zac Gallen gets the ball, and he is 4-2 with a 3.32 ERA and 73 strikeouts this season. Gallen is 3-1 with a 2.11 ERA and 57 strikeouts in his career against the Rockies.
The Colorado Rockies have scored 18 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 5 of their last 10 games. The Rockies have won 6 of their last 9 games when scoring 4 or more runs. CJ Cron leads the Rockies with 88 hits and 56 RBI, while Connor Joe and Charlie Blackmon have combined for 150 hits and 58 RBI.

The Diamondbacks are 9-25 in their last 34 Sunday games and 27-73 in their last 100 road games. The Rockies are 5-2 in their last 7 home games and 3-7 in their last 10 overall. The over is 4-1 in Diamondbacks last 5 overall. The over is 3-1-1 in Rockies last 5 overall. The Diamondbacks are 2-7 in the last 9 meetings in Colorado and 5-1 in the last 6 meetings.
Zac Gallen and cheap prices are tough to turn down, but he’s coming off a shaky month of June where he allowed 25 hits and 15 earned runs in 25.2 innings. Chad Kuhl has honestly been the better pitcher lately, allowing 29 hits and 11 earned runs in his last 29.1 innings. Kuhl has also been money at home, where he has a 2.48 ERA and .221 allowed batting average. Give me the Rockies at home and the even money.
