80 Percent of Consensus Plays Are on Diamondbacks, 85 Percent of Bets on AZ

The betting public is all over the Arizona Diamondbacks Sunday afternoon as they host San Francisco.

Yesterday was a similar story with the public losing following a Giants victory.

A repeat likely won't happen as the books are running scared, moving this line from Arizona -161 to -183.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Giants LH Drew Pomeranz (1-4, 5.93 ERA) vs. Diamondbacks LH Robbie Ray (3-1, 3.14)

Pomeranz is expected to be activated from the injured list prior to Sunday's contest after missing the last 10 days due to a left lat strain. The 30-year-old signed with the Giants as a free agent during the winter and has posted a 33-to-13 strikeout-to-walk ratio with eight home runs allowed in his first seven starts. Pomeranz is 0-3 with an 8.51 ERA in eight career games (five starts) versus Arizona, including an 0-2 record and 7.88 mark in five contests (three starts) at Chase Field.

Ray won his third straight decision on Monday against Pittsburgh, allowing two runs - one earned - over five innings while becoming the second-fastest left-handed pitcher to reach 800 strikeouts in major-league history. The 27-year-old Tennessean has gone 3-0 with a 1.98 ERA and 35 strikeouts over 27 1/3 frames in his last five starts. Panik is 7-for-17 against Ray, who owns a 4-1 record and 2.89 ERA in 11 career turns versus San Francisco.

The total on this game has drifted from 8.5 to 8 but we have seen it hit 7.5 at Pinnacle Sports.
