Free MLB Pick
The Astros keep rolling along winning five straight and nine of their last ten. The same can’t be said og the Padres who started the season strong but have tailed off losing six of their last seven. Dallas Keuchel has been nothing short of brilliant this season allowing zero runs in three of his four starts this season. It’s not much of a step down to San Diego starter Andrew Cashner who was lit up for five runs in five innings in his opener but has been dominant in his next three starts allowing a total of two runs over 19 innings. We’ll side with the team with the hot bats here.
