You have been on a roll my man! Hopefully you hit that one you have in..... if you don't mind me asking as someone who hates playing unders and therefore really don't like playing an under that low, would you like to give some analysis behind the pick? As someone who respects your plays, I'd love to hear it if you've got it! Best of luck to you:toast:
When looking to play Under the total in MLB, I review the current form of both pitchers. In the case of this game, Dodger pitcher Padilla is 3-1 with a 1.04 ERA in his last 5 starts, has an 0.98 ERA in July with 4 starts, 27.2 innings pitched, 15 hits, 4 runs allowed, 3 earned runs, 2 home runs, 6 walks and 22 strikeouts while holding his opposition to a .161 batting average. Meanwhile, Padres pitcher Matos is 4-0 since June 22 with a 0.80 ERA, has a 0.86 ERA in July with 3 starts, 21.0 innings pitched, 16 hits, 2 runs allowed, 2 earned runs, 2 home runs, 4 walks and 22 strikeouts while holding his opposition to a .205 batting average.
Both of these pitchers go deep into games, while not allowing many base runners via the walk, strikeout a significant number of batters per game and hold the opponents average extremely low. Both teams have quality late inning relief. Add all this up and if they pitch true to form, this should end up a pitcher's duel IMHO, particularly as this is an unusual starting time of 3:35 PDT with two teams that don't score a lot of runs.
Hope that helps you a bit! Best of luck to you today! :toast:
