Padres vs Dodgers Pick Analysis

It is very difficult for us to like the Padres in this game here. The Padres are outmatched in almost every aspect offensively and are only marginally better on the pitching side of the ball. That is going to really show up in the game here as the Padres are going to have some issues in keeping the Dodgers hitters in check and playing at Dodger Stadium the Dodgers are nearly impossible to beat with only 12 losses at home on the season. Final Score Prediction, Los Angeles Dodgers win 7-2.
