Divisional Destroyer MLB
(MLB) Arizona vs. San Diego,
Total: 8.00 | -114.00 Over
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Diamondbacks/Padres OVER.

1) This is the first game of a four-game series and the teams combined for 37 runs in their prior three-game series.

2) The Diamondbacks have one of the weaker bullpen ERAs in the league with a 4.24 ERA and the Padres bullpen ERA ranks about 15th in the majors so they are only average!

3) The Diamondbacks hand the ball to Cecconi (1-4, 5.59 ERA), while the home side goes with Randy Vasquez (1-3, 5.74 ERA). Vazquez has been getting hit hard this season with 38 hits in 26.2 innings.

4) The last 6 Diamondbacks games averaging 12 runs and I see Arizona hitting Vazquez hard but this Padres team I also expect to get back on track at home after a tough road trip. Over, over, over!

T.M. Prediction: 6-5 Padres.
