At 10:10 EST the Padres and Dodgers will square off in LA with Tony Gonsolin and Sean Manea starting. Congrats to the Padres who just won 4 of 5 against COL but are (11-19) L30 road games after having won 4 of their L5. The Dodgers on the other hand just swept San Francisco in 4 games but now get to come home where they smash L-H pitching .355 AVG/ 1.171 OPS and .742 SLG% over the L3 weeks and are (25-5) L30 including (16-1) vs divisional opponents at home. Take the better ball club in this spot despite the Padres making all the moves at the deadline. This will also be another emotional angle due to the fact it's the first home game since Vin scully passing so they will definitely have a ceremony before the game in honor of him. Take the Dodgers ML and -1.5.
pick: LA DODGERS -150/ -1.5 (+130)
