Kenny G tagged Cincinnati at +118 as his ‘dog of the day’. He is fading Zac Gallen, who sits 4-7 with a 5.13 ERA and has watched Arizona lose both games of this series by a combined 18-4. Even if Gallen manages a quality start, Kenny cannot trust the Diamondbacks’ bullpen (fourth-worst 5.01 ERA). Conversely, Brady Singer has held opponents to three earned or fewer in four straight and gets solid run support from a Reds lineup that sits 11th in runs and 13th in slugging. Cincinnati’s bullpen has quietly improved to 3.92 ERA. With the Reds swinging hotter bats, owning the better late-inning unit, and getting plus money at home, Kenny said the price is simply too generous to pass.

Bettor Mark’s second official wager is the DIAMONDBACKS TEAM TOTAL OVER 4.5 runs in Cincinnati. He noted Arizona has cashed this number in six of its last ten games (60%) and will be swinging in hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park after getting a few bonus at-bats when their suspended contest resumes earlier in the afternoon. With Nick Martinez on the mound for the Reds and warm June weather expected, Mark anticipates plenty of hard contact and called five runs an attainable target regardless of the final score.
