The Arizona Diamondbacks finish off a three-game set with the Minnesota Twins. The Twins took the first two games of the series. Arizona has lost four straight games and their 12th in the last 15 games. Zac Gallen will make the start for the D'backs. He is 11-5 with a 3.41 ERA and a 1.086 WHIP. Over his last three starts, he is 0-1 with a 5.12 ERA, a 1.14 WHIP. Minnesota has won two in a row and three of their last four. Dallas Keuchel makes his season debut for the Twins. Last season he was 2-9 with a 9.20 ERA and a 2.06 WHIP. Keuchel pitched well in the minor leagues this season, but you can't forget how bad he looked in the majors last season. Arizona has been absolutely terrible since the break but have a chance here to right themselves. Gallen has struggled recently but I like him and the D'backs to bounce back and get a win here.
