Padres 8-3 winner. One for today (still pre-season):
Astros -120 at Tigers
Expected matchup of Tim Redding (2-0 1.20) vs Esteban Yan (2-1 5.79) as both fifth starters get their last work in. Yan hasn't sewn up the 5th spot but is expected to get it. He will give up the gopher ball and this is the wrong team to serve those up to. Redding is pitching lights out 13 hits in 15 innings and only 2 earned runs while walking 3 and striking out 8. Lean to him to close out strong against a Tiger team that is just outclassed.
Good luck today to all.
