One MLB Bet To Consider On Sunday August 13th 2023
Padres @ Diamondbacks 4:10
Padres Moneyline (-135)
Diamondbacks starter Brandon Pfaadt is an extremely bright prospect. However, the numbers aren’t quite there yet for the 24 year old. Pfaadt holds a 7.16 ERA and 6.25 FIP heading into this game (49 innings pitched). The Padres offense is hitting .271 as a team (5th best in the MLB) over the last 15 days. During that same 15 day stretch, the Diamondbacks are hitting .205 as a team (worst in the MLB). Padres starter Seth Lugo struggled in his last start, but that game was against a very good Dodgers lineup. Lugo holds a 3.89 FIP this season, and he’s pitched much better on the road (3.27 road ERA). We will side with the better offense. Our wager is on the Padres moneyline.
