The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres meet Monday in MLB action at Petco Park. The Dodgers look for a win after winning six of their last seven games. The Padres look for a win to build on their four-game winning streak.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have scored 21 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last 10 games. The Dodgers have won 10 straight games when scoring more than one run. Justin Turner leads the Dodgers with 68 hits and 38 RBI while Mookie Betts and Chris Taylor have combined for 118 hits and 64 RBI. Julio Urias gets the ball, and he is 9-2 with a 3.54 ERA and 90 strikeouts this season. Urias is 1-0 with a 2.08 ERA and 25 strikeouts in his career against the Padres.

The San Diego Padres have scored 18 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last eight games. The Padres have won six of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs. Jake Cronenworth leads the Padres with 75 hits and 24 RBI while Eric Hosmer and Manny Machado have combined for 120 hits and 79 RBI. Yu Darvish gets the ball, and he is 6-2 with a 2.57 ERA and 97 strikeouts this season. Darvish is 1-1 with a 1.29 ERA and 28 strikeouts in his career against the Dodgers.

The Dodgers are 55-26 in their last 81 road games and 88-42 in their last 130 overall. The Padres are 19-7 in their last 26 home games and 11-5 in their last 16 Monday games. The under is 4-1-1 in Dodgers last 6 overall. The over is 5-0 in Padres last 5 overall. The Dodgers are 35-17 in the last 52 meetings in San Diego and 42-19 in the last 61 meetings.

The Padres finished the week strong, they’re at home and they have a CY Young candidate on the mound in Darvish. However, we’re getting the Dodgers in the underdog role, something that almost never happens. In fact, this will be the 11th time since 2019 the Dodgers have been an underdog. Urias also hasn’t been too shabby in his own right. Give me the Dodgers.
