Thursday MLB Free Pick
(The Spread) – The Padres are seeking revenge after losing to the Brewers on Wednesday. The two teams will square off again tonight.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made the visiting Brewers –107 money line favorites over the Padres, who are +101 on the ML. The over/under total for tonight’s game is 6.5 runs and the first pitch is set for 10:05PM ET.
Milwaukee took care of business on Wednesday thanks to Mark Kotsay’s big night at the dish. He went 3-for-4 and drove in two runs in the Brewers’ 5-2 win, while Prince Fielder finished 2-for-4 with two runs scored and a RBI. Corey Hart had a nice night as well, finishing 3-for-5 with a run scored.
The Brewers will send Chris Narveson to the hill tonight. Naverson is 2-3 with a 4.00 ERA over 45 innings of work. San Diego will counter with Aaron Harang, who is 5-2 on the season but his ERA is over 5.00 (5.05).
MLB Free Pick: Take the Padres. According to latest MLB trends, the Brewers are just 5-11 in their last 16 trips to San Diego (even counting last night’s victory) and are 0-4 in Naverson’s last four road starts. They’re also 1-5 in his last six starts overall and 3-9 in their last 12 road games overall. The Padres, meanwhile, are 6-2 in Harang’s last eight starts and 5-0 in his last five outings after scoring two runs or less in their previous game. Hopefully San Diego can scratch across more than a run or two and give Harang his sixth victory of the season.
