Padres vs. Diamondbacks Best MLB Prop Bets
Casey Mize UNDER 2.5 Earned Runs (-141)
Mize has already had one strong start against the Snakes this season, and he’s allowed UNDER 2.5 earned runs with regularity this season.
The right-hander has allowed UNDER 2.5 ER in 12 of 16 starts this season, including 11 of his last 14. I’ll bet on him to keep the Diamondbacks’ bats at bay in his Padres debut.
Padres vs. Diamondbacks Prediction and Pick
The Padres got to Eduardo Rodriguez last night, and have a great chance to do so again against a less-talented southpaw.
San Diego has turned things around in recent weeks as well. The Padres have won nine of 11 since an up-and-down stretch out of the break.
Pick: Padres ML -119
