San Francisco Giants vs San Diego Padres Prediction

The San Francisco Giants have nothing to play for, and they’re looking like it as they’ve been shutout in three straight games. That’s impressive. The San Diego Padres are as healthy as they’ve been all season and the playoff push continues as they’re closing in on a wild card spot. Two teams heading in different directions and have different levels of motivation. Even with Martin Perez and his struggles on the road, the Padres should win this game. I’ll gladly lay the cheap price with the Padres in game 3 against the Giants.
