The San Diego Padres couldn’t have asked for a better start to the 2020 campaign. Jayce Tingler won in his managerial debut while handing a defeat to Madison Bumgarner – a division foes big offseason signing.
The Padres looked great on both sides of the diamond in Friday’s 7-2 season opening win. They’ll try to keep that momentum going with seemingly good value as -130 favorites Saturday afternoon.
Arizona Diamondbacks
For as good as the Padres feel after the opener the Diamondbacks have to be reeling. Bumgarner gave up 3 runs in 5.2 IP which isn’t bad but he had absolutely no run support.
Arizona managed just 4 hits and 0 ER in 6.0 IP vs. SD’s starter Chris Paddack. The D’Backs have only faced San Diego’s Dinelson Lamet a total of 22 ABs, managing 6 hits (.273).
Robbie Ray gets set to make his 2020 debut in the second game of this series. The left-hander comes into a contract year hoping to ride a successful Spring / Summer camp that saw him post a 1.59 ERA in two games.
Ray was 12-8 a season ago but did show the tendency to give up some runs with a 4.34 ERA. He did show some struggles vs. San Diego though with a 5.40 ERA in three starts.
San Diego Padres
The Padres managed to plate 7 runs on Friday night powered by 6 RBI from Eric Hosmer on a 3 for 4 night. Hosmer has 2 HR in 15 AB vs. Robbie Ray while Manny Machado also has two dingers vs. the AZ starter in only 9 AB.
San Diego will counter with Dinelson Lamet who boasts an impressive slider and curveball among his pitching arsenal. Lamet was spinning in Spring/Summer camp not allowing a run in 9 IP over 3 games.
Lamet did go just 3-5 last year however as he tried to come back from Tommy John surgery that cost him 2018 and part of 2019. Lamet did not face Arizona among his 14 starts a year ago.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:
- Arizona is 1-7 last 8 games as an underdog
- Arizona is 2-6 last 8 road games
- Padres are 6-20 last 26 overall
- Diamondbacks are 9-3 in Ray’s last 9 starts vs. Padres
Free Arizona Diamondbacks vs. San Diego Padres MLB Prediction:
Last year this would be a great spot to go against the Padres because just when you think they put something together they go on a 4-game losing streak. A new manager means new momentum though.
