A bit of respect in the pricing here for the D-backs, who at 18-20 would figure to be posted as a bigger underdog than they are tonight against the team with the AL's best record. We wonder, however, if a bit too much respect paid to Arizona after its sweep at Cincinnati, which also got the broom treatment at home from Baltimore last weekend and is in a deep funk at the plate. The D-backs have also lost in five of the last six starts made by Brandon Pfaadt (who was clubbed last weekend by the Padres), while Cole Irvin brings a 20 2/3 IP scoreless streak into Camden Yards for the Birds tonight. Play O's on Money Line
The D-backs played Thursday, and they have used their bullpen a significant amount the past two days. Always love to pfade Brandon Pfaadt on the road as well. If it were maybe any other Orioles starter but Cole Irvin -- although to be fair he has been great lately, but I'm not quite buying stock yet -- this might be a "going to sell my plasma" type bet. The word plasma amuses me.
