Padres at Giants picks and predictions
Prediction
Padres 4, Giants 3
Money line
Snell has allowed 1 or 0 runs in 5 of his last 7 starts. The San Francisco offense is prone to long batting slumps and may be in one now.
TAKE SAN DIEGO (-125).

Run line/Against the spread
The Friars have the better bullpen, but the back end of that ‘pen is caution-flag fatigue territory. It’d be wise to AVOID the run line in taking the road favorite with a low total.
Over/Under
Both starters have good numbers against the batters they’ll see tonight. The Under 7.5 is the play … but only up to -120. PASS otherwise.
