This is an 8* ASSASSIN on the Arizona Diamondbacks.
The Phillies continue to struggle at the plate and managed just three hits in yesterday's 5-1 loss. Things won't get any easier today in facing a rejuvinated Shelby Miller and by sending the volatile Jeremy Hellickson to the hill. It was Philadelphia's sixth straight loss Sunday and its tenth out of its last 11. The Diamondbacks come in with a ton of momentum as they've won six of their last eight series. Hellickson (4-5, 4.46 ERA) gave up four runs off five hits in a 7-2 setback to Toronto on Wednesday. Over his last three starts he's walked nine batters and has allowed five home runs. Note that Hellickson owns a pedestrian 4.46 ERA in front of the home town crowd. Miller (1-6, 7.09) was placed on the 15-day DL on May 27th after suffering a sprained finger and would go on to make two rehab starts with High-A Visalia, going 2-0 with a minuscule 0.75 ERA in 12 innings of work. For arguments sake, let's call the starters a "wash." But clearly the Diamondbacks are going to get the big nod at the plate. The Phillies will break out of this slump soon, but it's not going to be today. Arizona is hungry to pile up as many victories as it can after a slow start to the season, we're not expecting the visitors to take the foot off the gas in what is another very favorable matchup for it. Play on the DIAMONDBACKS.
