00:00The Dodgers and the Padres there in San Diego.

00:04It's pitching Nick Pavetta for the Pods and Dustin May on the other side for L.A.

00:09The Dodgers, a road favorite, minus 122 tonight in San Diego.

00:15The over-under stands at 8.

00:19The RS, the Padres winning the weekend.

00:21The Dodgers avoiding a sweep yesterday against the St. Louis Cardinals.

00:25Minus 122 in favor of L.A.

00:27to start off this new midweek set.

00:30L.A. still in front in the National League West,

00:32but by just a game over San Diego and including San Francisco.

00:37How does the week start in San Diego tonight?

00:40Yeah, tough game too.

00:41And again, rightfully so.

00:42This should be roughly a pick.

00:43I mean, take a look at Dustin May on the mound.

00:44Hasn't been that great this season.

00:46Really struggling with lefties over the past 30 days,

00:48which could get you into some trouble.

00:50You know, Luis Arise is on that team.

00:51Jackson Merrill, Gavin Sheets, and Jake Cronenworth

00:53would be the guys I look forward to.

00:54But it hasn't been a great offensive lineup here for San Diego

00:58over the past, let's just say, week to two weeks.

01:00They've had their struggles.

01:01Manny Machado, I think yesterday,

01:02the only run that the San Diego Padres scored, I want to say,

01:05was on his solo home run.

01:06Sheets has good numbers.

01:07Cronenworth has good numbers.

01:08But everybody else leaves a lot to be desired.

01:10And you can't go into Dodgers games like,

01:12hey, I got one, two, or three batters

01:13to combat that Dodgers lineup.

01:15Now, Nick Pavetta also leaking a little bit of oil as of late here.

01:18116 batters that he's faced.

01:20It hasn't been bad because of the strength

01:22of the first start to a season.

01:23But you look at the lineup tonight.

01:25Oh, Tani's got good numbers.

01:26Betts has good numbers.

01:27Freeman has good numbers.

01:28Muncie and Pai is here.

01:29You just trust that if you're going to get a cheap price

01:32in a Dodgers game, Ben,

01:34where do you always go?

01:35To the Los Angeles Dodgers.

01:36Same thing yesterday.

01:37Like, Clayton Kershaw hasn't been a good pitcher this season.

01:39But it's like, hey, the price points are pretty similar.

01:41Let me just go with the Dodgers.

01:42And they roll to an easy victory.
