The Padres have been getting their game together lately and look like they could make a run. They are getting the Diamondbacks at a good time where they are struggling to be consistent with their bats, have a few injuries, and have a bad bullpen ERA average near the bottom of the league. The Diamondbacks are 21-24 on the road this season and Arizona are 2-4 straight up in their last 6 games against an opponent in the National League. Pfaadt has been hit and miss in the month of June and the Padres can get to him for some runs. The Padres already have taken a game in this series and the Padres are 7-1 in their last 8 games as a home favorite. They are also crushing right-handed pitchers and are 5-1 in their last 6 home games versus a right-handed starter. Waldron has been decent for the Padres, he did play well against the Phillies and the Nationals, and he will get the offensive support from the team. San Diego does have the better bullpen to close out the game. The Diamondbacks are 1-6 in their last 7 games as a road favorite of -110 to -150 so their is value in taking the home team.

Best bet: take the San Diego Padres on the moneyline (ML).
