Result: Loss
The Diamondbacks are coming into this game with a 12-16 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They have lost their last 3 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 games and their offense has been awful in these games. They have only scored 1 run in each of their last 3 games. Their pitching has not been great either as they have allowed at least 5 runs in 3 of their last 4 games. They are going up against a Mariners team that is 15-12 this season and has been playing much better in their recent games. They have won their last 3 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 games and their offense has been much better in these as well. They have scored 13 runs in their last 3 games and even their pitching has been much better as they have allowed just 2 runs or less in 5 of their last 7 games, allowing just 2 runs total in their last 2 straight. Brandon Pfaadt is starting for the Diamondbacks in this game and he is 1-1 with a 4.97 ERA this season. He was not great in his rookie season last year as he gave up a lot of runs in his starts, and he has continued that into this season as well. He has allowed runs in all 5 of his starts this season, allowing at least 5 earned runs in 2 of his last 4 starts, and he has also allowed at least 2 earned runs in each of his last 4 starts. He has been very inconsistent as a starter in his first 2 MLB seasons and with the Mariners offense starting to heat up now, he is going to give up runs in this game. Logan Gilbert is starting for the Mariners here and he is 2-0 with a 1.87 ERA this season. He has been great in his starts this season as he had 1 bad start which he allowed 4 earned runs in but he has been great in his 3 starts since then. He has pitched close to 7 innings in each of his last 3 starts and has only allowed 2 earned runs total in his last 3 starts. He has also allowed just 1 earned run or less in 4 of his 5 starts this season. He has been great in his 2 starts at home as well and he will continue to pitch well here with the Diamondbacks offense in a bit of a slump right now. The Mariners are hot right now and they are going to win this game at home.
