Prediction

While the Diamondbacks have shown strength at home, the Dodgers have been dominant on Mondays and against left-handed pitchers. Flaherty has a favorable track record overall (10-6, 3.07 ERA in 2024) and the team has been better on the road (37-31). Eduardo Rodriguez (2-0, 5.06 ERA) has struggled and could encounter some familiar issues against a potent offense in a hitter-friendly ballpark.
