The Arizona Diamondbacks will host the Colorado Rockies at Chase Field Monday night. Matchups between the two NL West foes are usually high-scoring encounters, and I expect more of the same in this contest.

Tyler Anderson (5-5, 3.35 ERA) takes the ball for Colorado. The 26 year old rookie has posted a 1.93 ERA through his last three starts, but he's still allowed plenty of baserunners. Over is 13-5 in Diamondbacks last 18 home games vs. a left-handed starter and I think they'll score plenty of runs off Anderson early, and then he'll hand over the ball to a bullpen which has the second worst ERA in baseball.

Only the D'Backs relievers have a higher combined ERA than the Rockies, and they might be forced into action early here with Shelby Miller (2-11, 6.89 ERA) on the mound. Miller was chased off the mound after just 4 1/3 innings in his last start, but not before surrendering five runs (four earned) on 11 hits. Miller is 0-7 with a 7.50 ERA in eight starts at Chase Field and he's allowed 16 runs on 23 hits and six walks in 15 2/3 innings of work against Colorado on the season.

Over is 17-8-3 in the last 28 meetings in Arizona and 39-18-3 in the last 60 meetings overall. The two teams squared off in a three-game series at Coors Field less than two weeks ago and each of the games saw 13 runs or more.
