Players to Watch + Prediction

For the Diamondbacks, Goldy seems to be finally coming around at the plate, and in order for the offense as a whole to get going, Goldy has to hit. Hopefully he can hit the ball hard a lot.

For the Pirates, Starling Marte and Gregory Polanco always seem to hit the Diamondbacks well.

I like the pitching matchups for the Diamondbacks, so I say the D-backs take two of three.
