D’Backs vs Rockies Free Pick June 8, 2018 – Jesse Schule

D’Backs vs Rockies Free Pick June 8, 2018

The Rockies are just a half a game back of division leaders Arizona, but they have really struggled at home. Colorado has lost four straight at Coors Field, and the majority of their wins this season have come on the road.

German Marquez will toe the rubber for the Rockies in Game 1 against Arizona tonight, and he’s struggled at home. Marquez (4-5, 4.38 ERA) allowed four runs on seven hits and three walks in six innings in a home loss to the Dodgers his last time out. He’s 1-3 with a 7.22 ERA in six home starts this season.

Arizona will hand the ball to Zack Greinke, who has been having a solid season. While Greinke has better numbers at home than he does on the road, he’s still won a lot more than he’s lost on the road over the last three seasons.

The D’Backs have won six of their last nine overall, and slugger Paul Goldschmidt is batting .435 in June. Goldschmidt is 6-for-13 with a pair of home runs lifetime versus Marquez.

Take ARI.
