Chip's AL Megabucks Best Bet (D'backs/Braves)
(MLB) Arizona vs. Atlanta,
Money Line: -111.00 Arizona (Away)
Result: Loss
Arizona at Atlanta 7:35 ET
Diamondbacks over Braves- The All-Star break came at the right time for Arizona who still barely holds a two-game lead over Colorado for the top NL Wild Card spot after dropping eight of their last 11. Sluggers Paul Goldschmidt and Jake Lamb will be ready to assault the NL in the second half as both tied with 67 RBI's as the D'backs who are 35-19 against sub .500 teams and play 19 of their next 22 against losing teams. They will start Taijuan Walker (6-4, 3.65 ERA) who has posted a 2.65 ERA while going 4-2 in seven road starts. I don't care who starts (R.A. Dickey 6-5, 4.23) or who plays for the Braves I want Arizona. Take the DIAMONDBACKS!
