The Diamondbacks return to Phoenix after an underwhelming road trip to begin a 9 game homestand against the Tigers, Pirates, and Mets. None of those teams currently have a record above .500 or a positive run differential, so the Diamondbacks need to put themselves back on proper footing. The Mets’ pitching staff has allowed the 3rd most runs in the majors at the time of writing and have serious questions to answer in their rotation. Detroit has allowed the 2nd most runs in the American League. The Pirates’ issue is that a chunk of their players are either suspended or injured resulting in the 3rd lowest scoring offense in the Senior Circuit.
