Arizona at San Diego Prediction 09/30/2018
The Diamondbacks have won Ray’s last eight starts against the Padres while San Diego has lost all five of Lucchesi’s starts against Arizona this season. On top of that Ray is a lefty and the Padres have lost nine of their last 11 home games facing a left-hand starter. This one is not a tough call and while the D-Backs have had a less than stellar month of September they have played well as of late and will end their, somewhat, disappointing season on a high note with a win in their last game. Ray will pitch well while Lucchesi will not, and Arizona will take this game and the series.
