00:00
Can San Diego get back in the win column at home?
00:03
Some day baseball at Petco.
00:06
It's the Padres and the Cubbies in San Diego.
00:09
An ever so slight favorite, minus 122 on that money line.
00:12
Total stands at 7.5.
00:13
What do you like here in the rubber match today in San Diego?
00:16
You take a look at those 7.5s, identical to what you saw last night,
00:20
which easily stayed on the under, and also that game went into extra innings.
00:24
Pitching, Pavetta is on the mound today.
00:25
Why do we bring that up?
00:26
17 innings so far on this young season for Pavetta.
00:29
How about a 1.59 ERA, which actually is translating to a 2.96 XFIP,
00:34
which is really, really good.
00:35
You look at the lineup today, or at least the anticipated lineup,
00:37
for the Chicago Cubs, Tucker, Bush, Creek Crowe Armstrong, and Miguel Amaya
00:41
have very good statistics, ISO power number, and power-wise,
00:44
with weighted on base percentages against right into pitching.
00:47
The rest leaves a little bit to be desired.
00:49
You flip it over to the other side.
00:50
Boyd, who comes into this game with decent statistics also through his 17 innings pitched,
00:54
a 1.59 ERA, but a slightly elevated XFIP number of 4.22.
00:59
You look at the lineup.
01:00
However, for the Padres, it doesn't face all that much left-handed pitching,
01:04
and hasn't done all of that all well.
01:06
So a day game out there at Petco, which usually the ball travels a little bit better than at night,
01:10
I'm still going to lean on the under 7.5 like we saw last night.
01:13
Two decent pitchers, two lineups that don't present themselves all that well.
01:16
I don't know if we get to eight runs.
01:18
Therefore, I'll lean undersized.
