Doug Davis has pitched well for the Diamondbacks, but is 2-5 on the season, and you don't have to look too hard to find the answer why. The D-Backs have had a monumental struggle producing runs. And when they have taken to the road, the offensive contribution is a mere 2.2 runs a game. That could turn a Cy Young candidate into a 20-game loser! The Braves were in desperate need of a pitcher that could give them a chance to win and eat some innings, and Javy Vasquez has done that. Vasquez is pitching to a 3.88 ERA, and has pitched through the sixth inning in every one of his six starts. The Braves have blitzed southpaws for 5.8 runs per game this season - more than enough to get the call in this one, Braves here.

2 units on Atlanta -1.5 runs +110 (runline) (risk 2 to return 2)
