Padres vs Tigers Predictions, Parlay Picks
[subheader sizedown=”true” center=”false” text=”Padres ML” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/mlb/100/sd.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/odds/san-diego-padres” link1follow=”false”][/subheader]
The Padres are 17-7 overall and 5-6 on the road this season.
Kyle Hart takes the mound on Wednesday with a 2-1 record and a 6.48 ERA. In his last outing, Hart got destroyed, allowing 10 hits and five runs with just two strikeouts in five innings.
However, I think that he gets back to normal on Wednesday versus the Tigers.
Detroit is 5-5 in its last 10 games, and San Diego should get it done on the road.
[subheader sizedown=”true” center=”false” text=”Over 8 Runs” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/mlb/100/sd.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/odds/san-diego-padres” logo2url=”https://assets.actionnetwork.com/461059_det_n.png” link2=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/odds/detroit-tigers” link1follow=“false”][/subheader]
San Diego is fourth in the league in hits per game, averaging 8.9. It’s an even better hitting team against right-handed pitchers, with a .281 batting average and .770 OPS.
The Padres are also better in day games, as they tend to be more productive at the plate.
Tigers’ Reece Olson pitched a scoreless five innings in his last outing, and I don’t expect him to repeat that performance.
The Padres should get to Olson early and the runs should come flowing all game long.
[subheader sizedown=”true” center=”false” text=”Gavin Sheets Over 1.5 Total Bases” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/mlb/100/sd.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/odds/san-diego-padres” link1follow=“false”][/subheader]
Gavin Sheets has been on a tear lately, as he’s hitting .333 in the past week. On the year, he’s 21-for-65 overall and 19-for-56 against right-handed pitching.
Sheets has a great matchup on Wednesday against Olson. He’s red hot in this series, and I expect him to continue that on Wednesday with a few hits or a double.
Lastly, Sheets has faced Olson seven times and has recorded two hits in their matchups.
Also, I do believe this will be a high-scoring game, so Sheets should contribute to it by bringing in a few runs with his hot bat.
