San Diego Padres
The Padres will send Matt Strahm to the hill for game three of this four game series against Arizona. Strahm got knocked around by these Diamondbacks in his season debut, giving up 5 runs in 2 and 2/3 innings in a losing effort. He sits at 0-2 with a 7.04 ERA and 4 strikeouts on the year.

San Diego is in uncharted waters as they sit atop the National League West in the early going after their win over Arizona on Thursday night. The Padres and the Brewers are the only two teams in the whole league who lead their division despite having a negative run differential. The Friars are giving up an average of 3.87 runs per game, while scoring an average of 3.78.
Arizona Diamondbacks
One of the prize acquisitions of the Paul Goldschmidt deal, Merrill Kelly, has looked sharp in his first two Major League starts. He got the win in his first game, but fell a bit short in his second start, even though he only gave up a solo homerun over 8 innings against the Boston Red Sox. His record coming into Saturday is 1-1 with a 2.57 ERA and he has struck out 12 batters.

The D-Backs are lacking homerun power in the early going. They lost about 60 homers due to the injuries of Steven Souza Jr. and Jake Lamb. David Peralta has been tearing the cover off of the ball, hitting .367 in the early going, but only has two homeruns on the year. They had better find their longball hitter soon, or this early season flirt with .500 will go by the wayside real quick.

Free San Diego Padres vs. Arizona Diamondbacks MLB Prediction:
The Padres are playing a bit better than expected in the early going, and I think we will see them come back down to earth soon. This division is a strange one with the way each of the teams have been up and down so far, but neither of these two sides will be contending come October, so enjoy the early success while you can if you’re a fan of either of these two teams.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Diamondbacks -108
Take the D-Backs to win this game at home on Saturday. Kelly has shown that he belongs at this level, which I don’t know if the same thing can be said about Matt Strahm in the early parts of this season.
