San Diego Padres vs San Francisco Giants Prediction
Logan Webb and plus money is worth a look, but he’s not nearly as effective on the road as he is at home. Also, the Padres continue to play their best ball of the season and seem to be gaining confidence now that they’re as healthy as they’ve been all year. As I’ve said a lot over the last month or so, I’m not running to the window to step in front of these Padres. This team has grown on me since the All-Star break. At home, give me the Padres to stay hot.
