SD is one of the hottest teams in baseball right now with a 7 game win BUT this is a totally different ball club away from PETCO. Their line up is one of the weakest in baseball and with the exception of last nights game and the 17-2 beating on Atlanta, it is not built to produce a ton of runs. They are going to play small ball most of the time, manufacture runs..try to get a few men on base for Gonzalez/Veanable and hope for some 2-3 run HRS here and there. They struggle heavily against big power arms and that's exactly what Cueto is.
take a look at SD's last couple games against big power arms. 3 runs against Cain, 2 against Hudson n 2 again against Jimenez. The way the Reds are swinging the bats right now 2-3 runs is not going to be enough to get it done.
