Betting Odds and Expert Picks for Dodgers vs D-Backs 6/1/26

-160O/U: 8.5
(-120/+100)+140

Emmet Sheehan – Over/Under 5.5 Strikeouts (+105/-135)
Emmet Sheehan’s fastball velocity has fallen 1.4 mph this year (93.6 mph) below where it was last season (95 mph).
Explain: Velocity is a key component to fastball success in generating strikeouts and preventing runs, so a pitcher whose velocity decreases will likely see worse results.
Will Smith – Over/Under 0.5 Hits (-220/+165)
Will Smith has primarily hit in the top-half of the lineup this season (86% of the time), but he is projected to bat 6th on the lineup card in this game.
Explain: The lower in the order a player bats, the fewer plate appearances he will get and the fewer opportunities he will get to hit the Over for every market. A player who hits lower in the order than he normally does may provide extra value opportunity since the market may be based on him hitting higher.
Los Angeles Dodgers – Moneyline (-160)
The Los Angeles Dodgers projected batting order profiles as the strongest of the day in terms of overall batting ability.
Explain: A pitcher who faces a strong opposing offense will be more likely to underperform his usual performance, particularly in terms of hits and runs, in that game.

Eduardo Rodriguez – Over/Under 16.5 Pitching Outs (-110/-120)
Compared to the average pitcher, Eduardo Rodriguez has been granted more leash than the average pitcher this year, recording an extra 4.3 adjusted pitches each start.
Explain: Pitchers with a longer leash are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.
Nolan Arenado – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-180/+135)
Nolan Arenado’s exit velocity on flyballs has decreased this year; his 89.5-mph EV last year has lowered to 87.5-mph.
Explain: Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.
Arizona Diamondbacks – 2H Moneyline
According to the leading projection system (THE BAT), the Arizona Diamondbacks’ bullpen profiles as the 9th-best out of all MLB teams.
Explain: Most bettors only consider the starting pitcher, but a strong bullpen sneakily creates a tougher matchup for the opposing offense and suppresses a game’s runs.
