Colorado Rockies vs. San Diego Padres Prop Pick: Will Austin Gomber Struggle Against Red-Hot Padres?

The Colorado Rockies travel to San Diego tonight to take on the Padres for the first game of a 3-game series. The Rockies will send Austin Gomber to the mound who has had his fair share of struggles on the road this season. Gomber has pitched in 11 road games this season, he currently holds a 5.73 road ERA, he has registered just one win, and he’s failed to record 18+ outs in eight of those games.

Colorado Rockies vs. San Diego Padres Prediction

Tonight he will face a Padres offense that has been red-hot against left-handed pitchers as of late. Over the last month, San Diego has the 4th highest wRC+ (138), 2nd highest batting average (.295), and they are striking out at the 3rd lowest percentage in baseball. When looking at the last seven opposing left-handed starters that have faced them, six out of seven have recorded 17 pitching outs or less. I’ll be targeting the under on Austin Gomber’s 17.5 pitching out prop, a number he has gone over just three times on the road this season.

When diving into Gomber’s advanced metrics, there’s really nothing to get excited about. He has struggled across the board this season, and he will have his hands full if the Padres offense can stay hot at the plate. Give me the under on Austin Gomber’s 17.5 pitching outs and let’s cash tonight!
