Free MLB Pick
We think that the edge in starting pitching this afternoon is worth laying the big price on the moneyline and backing the Padres. Cincinnati starter Raisel Iglesias has been real good in his last couple of starts including one on the road in Arizona, but he’s struggled overall on the road this season overall with a 6.20 ERA. James Shields has recorded three straight Q starts and has excelled at home this season with a 4-1 W/L record and 2.61 earned run average. San Diego has won four of the five meeting this season and we’re confident that will be five of six after this afternoon.
