Diamondbacks (-138) vs. Blue Jays

"Unofficially, when I've gone to Diamondbacks games in the last four years, Arizona wins at least at least 2/3 of the time. Now that's not why I'm picking them on Friday night, but yes, I'll be at the game," SportsLine expert Eric Cohen said. "The DBacks had a successful 6-3 road trip back east and had a day of rest, whereas Toronto flew from Milwaukee to Phoenix on Thursday night. In terms of the starting pitchers, Michael Soroka is 3-0 this season for the home team, while Eric Lauer has a 7.82 ERA for Toronto. Arizona wins 7-4." Back the Diamondbacks to win at DraftKings here, and claim $300 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet wins as a new user:
