Zach Davies returned from the IL on August 26, holding Cincinnati to one run in five innings. It was a significant step in the right direction for the vet, who has underperformed this season. I'm predicting another solid outing from Davies on Friday at home.

Cole Irvin has also been pitching well recently. He posted a 2.25 ERA and a 0.85 WHIP in six August appearances (20.0 IP). The D-Backs don't hit left-handers as well as righties, with a .313 OBP vs. southpaws. Their bats cooled off in their last series, managing just one run in the final two games in LA.

The under is 37-25-5 in Arizona's home games, the fourth-highest under winning percentage (59.7%) in the big leagues this year. It's 15-10-5 when the D-Backs are home dogs and 21-11-2 in their interleague games (65.6%). Bet on it to cash on Friday night!
