This is a very similar starting pitching matchup to last night with a hard throwing righty for the Reds and a soft throwing lefty for the Dbacks. I think that should replay itself tonight. The Reds won that game handily and they are ranked 5th in the league in wOBA against lefties in the past month. My only worry here is the Reds bullpen so I wouldnt mind a Reds F5 bet here at all, but the Dbacks haven't been able to hit lately scoring a total of 1 run in their past three games. I like the Reds at home.

The Reds pummeled the Diamondbacks in a rain-shortened game yesterday and that was when it looked as if Arizona had the starting pitching edge. That doesn't appear to be the case this evening with Tyler Gilbert (0-2, 5.02 ERA) opposed by good-looking Cincinnati rookie Graham Ashcraft (2-0, 1.53 ERA). Also, one of the Snakes' better offensive players (not saying much), David Peralta, left Monday with some back issues so he may not be available.
