The Oakland Athletics will look to keep their excellent season rolling this Tuesday, as they take on the equally impressive San Diego Padres at Petco Park.
Oakland Athletics
The Athletics are playing strong and fundamentally sound baseball which is clearly paying off, but things have not been quite as good recently losing their last 3 games and falling in the division now trailing the Houston Astros by 5.5 games.
The batting lineup has been the weaker half of the Oakland A’s roster, but one guy who has been absolutely raking this year is Matt Olson who now has 27 home runs and 66 RBI and a very decent .287 average.
James Kaprielian will be on the mound for this matchup with the Padres and he has been quite strong so far this year, but their are also not many tougher matchups then the Padres in terms of their batting lineup, so it remains to be seen how deep he can go in this game given the power on the other side of the ball.
San Diego Padres
The San Diego Padres were expected to be contenders this year, as they made some solid offseason moves, and they are living up to the hype only trailing the San Francisco Giants by 5.5 games.
Fernando Tatis Jr. will get all the headlines for this Padres side and that is deservedly so, but Manny Machado has also been putting together a very respectable season and he now leads the team in RBI with 68.
San Diego’s pitching rotation has been excellent so far this year only giving up a 3.50 ERA as a team, and so them not having a listed pitcher here is not too scary, but it will obviously be important to keep an eye on who they will send to the hill here.

Free Oakland Athletics vs. San Diego Padres MLB Prediction:
I think we are starting to see some signs of pull back from the Oakland A’s and I think that continues for some of the second half of the season and I think that pull back continues here against the San Diego Padres who I believe are simply the better team.
They are not only the better team, they are also incorrectly priced, as they likely should be bigger favorites in this spot, as they have plenty of good pitchers they can send to the mound here who can get the job done.
