The under is 35-16-1 in Padres last 52 overall. The over is 5-2-1 in Marlins last 8 home games. The Padres are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings in Miami.

Randy’s Pick

The San Diego Padres are worth a look in the underdog role here, but Ryan Weathers isn’t scaring anybody and the Padres have had issues winning when he’s on the mound. Sandy Alcantara is a shell of what he was a year ago, but you’d assume he’s going to get back on track eventually. The Marlins are scoring runs, and they’re back home with confidence. Cheap price. Give me the fish.
