Padres at Blue Jays picks and predictions
Prediction
Padres 6, Blue Jays 4
Moneyline
The Padres should bounce back after losing 3 straight games at the Phillies.
The Blue Jays are coming off a 3-game sweep of the Diamondbacks, but Arizona was already in free fall and had lost 5 of its previous 7 heading into the series.
Manoah looked good at the Tigers last time out but has yet to string together back-to-back above-average performances this season.
BET PADRES (-115).
Run line/Against the spread
I only bet the moneyline in this game, but the Padres’ run line is also an option for those who would prefer to play something at plus money.
San Diego’s last 9 wins have been by multiple runs and 24 of Toronto’s last 29 losses have been by 2 or more runs.
LEAN PADRES -1.5 (+140).

Over/Under
The Over is 14-3-3 in San Diego’s last 20 games and 14-11-2 this season when the Padres are road favorites.
The Over is 8-4 this season when the Padres are coming off 1 day of rest and should hit again Tuesday with the inconsistent Manoah on the mound for Toronto.
BET OVER 9 (-115).
