Jake Cronenworth leads the Padres with 84 hits and 33 RBI while Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr. have combined for 133 hits and 104 RBI. Blake Snell gets the ball, and he is 3-3 with a 5.29 ERA and 90 strikeouts this season. This will be Snell’s first career game against the Reds.

The Padres are 1-9 in their last 10 road games and 9-1 in their last 10 overall. The Reds are 5-2 in their last 7 home games and 3-7 in their last 10 overall. The over is 4-0 in Padres last 4 overall. The under is 4-0 in Reds last 4 overall. The Padres are 4-0 in the last 4 meetings. The under is 8-3 in the last 11 meetings.
The Padres are going to be favored because of what they’ve done this season, but I’m not laying juice with Snell on the mound. Snell has an ERA over five on the season and has 40 walks in 66.1 innings. On the road through 28.2 innings, Snell has an ERA of 10.36 with 24 walks. No, thanks. Give me the Reds and the plus money.
