San Diego Padres vs. Colorado Rockies
Friday, August 16, 2024 – 08:40 PM ET at Coors Field
The AI Model projects the Padres and Rockies to add just 10.1 runs in tonight’s game. However, the total is currently at 11 at Bet365. With a full run difference, we’ll take the Under. You can thank the AI Model for this one!
Matt Waldron Is Fooling Righties
The San Diego starter, Matt Waldron, has added 32.7% of strikeouts against righties over the last month.
He’ll take on a Colorado lineup that should have at least four righties tonight. Those four righties have struck out nearly 29% of the time against other righties over the last month. If he’s ever in trouble and facing a righty, he can get out of jams with his put-away pitches.
At Least Quantrill Keeps Walks Down
The Padres look much better offensively, but it still usually takes two to tango. The Rockies will pitch Cal Quantrill, who has struck out 28.6% of righties and limited walks to 9.4%. He’s also held his last 96 batters to only 24.6% of fly balls.
These types of numbers should at least keep the Padres in check.
The Pick
Grab the Under 11 for this matchup, despite the game being in Coors Field.
