Predictions and Betting Preview for the Dodgers vs Diamondbacks MLB Regular Season Game on April 8, 2023
- Where: Chase Field, Phoenix, Arizona.
- When: Saturday, April 8, 2023, 8:10 PM E.T.
Betting on the Los Angeles Dodgers
- Regular Season Record 2023: 5-2
The Dodgers are off to a blazing start in the 2023 season. Despite not being as active in the market as in previous years, Dave Roberts’ team still has everything it takes to compete against any opponent.
Pitcher Dustin May has only allowed one run in 13 innings pitched in 2023, which is fantastic news for the Californians.If the 25-year-old right-hander makes a notable leap in quality this season, it would compensate for the absence of Walker Buehler, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery.
As for the offense, first baseman Freddie Freeman has had a tremendous start with a .385 batting average, 1.077 OPS, and .500 OBP in his seven games played so far.
Starting pitcher: Noah Syndergaard (0-0, 1.50 ERA).
Betting on the Arizona Diamondbacks
- Regular Season Record 2023: 3-4
The Arizona Diamondbacks were selected by several analysts as one of the contenders to surprise in this 2023. However, the desert squad knows that if they want to live up to the hype, they must be able to take on the Dodgers and the Padres within their division.
Arizona needs its offense to wake up soon, as it has hit just four home runs so far, ranking second to last in all of the MLB, ahead of only the Washington Nationals’ two homers. In terms of pitching, things have not been very positive either, since the team’s collective effectiveness is 5.23, a statistic that places them 23rd in the Major Leagues.
Starting pitcher: Zach Davies (0-0, 1.80 ERA).
JefeBet Prediction
The Arizona Diamondbacks have a solid advantage going into this matchup. Zach Davis has had some impressive performances against the Dodgers in the past, flaunting an impressive 3.07 ERA and 65 strikeouts in 15 appearances against them.
At JefeBet, we are confident that Arizona has what it takes to come out on top against Noah Syndergaard, who has not been the same dominant pitcher we saw in the early days of his career with the Mets.
Prediction: Diamondbacks Runline (LAD 3-5 ARI).
