Drinking some juice here but I prefer it for these teams and want to stay away from caring about the bullpens. This is great target for a NRSI and I am glad to start the day with a second one. Another game with a 7.5 total makes me feel confident.
San Diego Padres vs. San Francisco Giants Prediction
On the mound for San Diego is Dylan Cease. Cease has one start this year and it was against this same Giants team. Cease actually did allow a run in the second inning but I’m confident he won't again. Cease is a great pitcher with a great history against these bats. The Giants' bats are a lifetime 6-49 against him which is a .122 average, Cease won't get rocked again in the second.
On the mound for San Francisco is Jordan Hicks. Now this is a different story but one I also like. Hicks dominated this Padres team and although I don’t think he will have as good of a start, I like that he should avoid Franscico Tatis Jr. and Xander Bogaerts and possibly Manny Machado. Hicks had a 2.63 ERA last year and looks like he's picking up where he left off, we just need three clean outs. I believe in him. Let's roll!
