(909) Arizona Diamondbacks at (910) Colorado Rockies
This is a 5* play on ARI (1ar 5-ML).
Arizona sits just two games clear of the Cubs and the Mets for the final Wild Card spot in the NL, and they need to keep the pedal to the metal here in Colorado on Monday. They face 29 year old right-hander Antonio Senzatela, who hasn't pitched in the majors since May of last year. He's coming off Tommy John surgery, and he allowed 10 runs on 16 hits including three home runs over 17 innings in five rehab starts. He will surely be on a pitch count, which means the D'Backs will get a solid crack at the worst bullpen in the major leagues. Merril Kelly goes for Arizona and he's 2-0 with a 2.13 ERA in two starts versus the Rockies this season. He's 7-3 with an ERA of 3.64 in 14 career appearances versus Colorado. Senzatela is 3-9 with an ERA of 5.72 in 21 appearances versus Arizona.
