Predictions
The Padres are sending ace Dylan Cease (6-5, 3.36 ERA) to the mound. He has been up and down for them this season but they will need him to put out a good showing to stop the losing streak. This is why the team traded for Cease and he will need to step up. As for the Mets, they will counter with Tylor Megill (1-3, 3.51 ERA). For the Padres, they need the offense to step up in this one if they want to get the win. The bats have been cold through the first two games but they finally wake up in a big way today.
