Butler is coming off a mediocre effort (6 innings, 4 runs) but won the game nonetheless. He doesn’t have any Q starts on the year but has allowed 2 runs or less in 3 of his 4 starts. He has allowed a lot of baserunners but has been very good at stranding most of them. Kennedy was hammered in his last start (4.1 innings, 8 runs) and left his first start early. He hasn’t found a rhythm yet in 2015.
For the Rockies, 2B D.J. LeMahieu is hitting .389 off of Kennedy and 1B Justin Morneau (.385) has also had a lot of success vs. the right-hander. SS Troy Tulowitzki is hitting only .214 but has belted 3 HRs. OF Carlos Gonzalez has mustered only a .138 BA (4 for 29).

Free MLB Pick
After a good start to the season the Padres are on a free fall losing 7 of their last 8. Ian Kennedy was atrocious in his last outing and will have to show some more before we risk any of our bankroll on him. The Rockies had been hitting the ball well before last night’s 9-1 loss with 5 or more runs in 6 of the previous 7 games. Colorado starter Eddie Butler has been mediocre this season in 4 starts and San Diego should be able to get to him for some runs tonight.
