Online Baseball Betting: The Numbers Don’t Lie!
Summary
The Arizona Diamondbacks are rapidly closing in on the Colorado Rockies, thanks to several star performances. Here's a look at what's happening and why numbers matter in baseball betting.
Key Points
The Arizona Diamondbacks are making a strong push against the Colorado Rockies, with standout performances contributing significantly. Their defense is a key factor, leading the major leagues with 39 double plays and sharing the best National League fielding percentage (.989) with the Padres.
Arizona Diamondbacks Highlights
Third baseman Chad Tracy has been on a hot streak, homering in three consecutive games. His latest, a solo shot against Cubs starter Rich Hill, marks his sixth of the season. The team record for consecutive games with a home run is four, last achieved by Troy Glaus in 2005.
RHP Jose Valverde has demonstrated his value with eight saves, placing him third in the National League. Despite this, manager Bob Melvin planned a rest day for Valverde after pitching three games in a row.
Atlanta Braves and Chicago Cubs Struggles
The Atlanta Braves are struggling at bat, evident from their 173 strikeouts. Despite pitcher John Thomson maintaining a 1.32 ERA in May, he has yet to secure a win due to the team’s lack of offensive support.
The Cubs, expected to see strong performances from Carlos Zambrano, face disappointment as his record sits at 0-2. Over seven games, Zambrano has pitched just 40 innings and struck out 48 batters while walking 28, resulting in a concerning 1.60 WHIP.
On their current nine-game road trip, the Cubs were swept by both Arizona and San Diego, losing seven consecutive games while scoring only 12 runs across their last 10 games.
Mets vs. Phillies: A Rivalry to Watch
The Mets' visit to Philadelphia marks a homecoming for Billy Wagner, who spent two seasons with the Phillies. Wagner left for the Mets after receiving a four-year, $43 million contract, as opposed to Philadelphia's three-year offer.
Having saved seven games in 10 chances, Wagner aims to support ace Pedro Martinez, who is 5-0 with a 2.72 ERA. Martinez is making his debut at Citizens Bank Park but boasts a lifetime 7-4 record with a 2.85 ERA against the Phillies. His previous efforts against them include a 2-1 record with the Mets.
Despite a setback when Wagner allowed two runs in the ninth inning recently, the Mets rallied to a 4-3 victory in 12 innings.
Phillies on a Winning Streak
The Phillies are on their longest winning streak since 1991, triumphing in eight of their last 10 home games, which evens their home record at Citizens Bank Park to 10-10.
