Preview

The Colorado Rockies and the San Diego Padres meet again to play a 3-game series at the Coors Field. The Padres swept the Cubs in their last series on the road while the Rockies took the sweep against the Guardians.

Colorado Rockies

The Rockies get here with a 27-37 record and have lost 3 of their last 5 games. The team is averaging 4.4 runs while allowing 5.5 runs per game. CJ Cron leads the team with 14 home runs, 41 RBI and batting for a .305 AVG.

Joe Musgrove  leads the pitching staff with a 1.59 ERA, 81 strikeouts and 8 wins recorded for the Rockies.

Probable Pitcher: 

Kyle Freeland (2-5, 4.39 ERA) will start for the Rockies in the 1st game of the series. Freeland grabbed the win in Game 2 of a doubleheader against San Diego on Saturday, giving two runs on three hits and two walks in six innings with three strikeouts.

San Diego Padres

Joe Musgrove leads the pitching staff with a 1.50 ERA, 72 strikeouts and 7 wins recorded for the Padres.

Probable Pitcher:

MacKenzie Gore (4-2, 2.50 ERA) will start for the Padres in the 1st game of the series. Gore took the loss in Game 2 of a doubleheader against the Rockies on Saturday, allowing six runs on five hits and four walks in 2.1 innings with three strikeouts. 

BETTING TRENDS

San Diego are 7-0 SU in their last 7 games on the road.

San Diego are 0-7 SU in their last 7 games when playing on the road against Colorado.

The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Colorado's last 7 games against San Diego.

Colorado are 0-7 SU in their last 7 games at home.

Prediction

These teams just met a week ago and they tied the series 2-2. Also this was the same pitching matchup of 1 of those games where Freeland and the Rockies took the win in that game. With the Padres offense on fire right now I expect to give Freeland more problems this time and also the Rockies will give trouble to Gore. Expect a high scoring game, take the over, 

PICK: Over 11.5 (-110)
