The Padres are 5-0 in Clevinger's last 5 starts against a team with a losing record. The Rockies are 1-5 in their last six games against the National League West. The under is 4-0-1 in Freeland’s last five starts. The over is 8-0 in the Padres last eight games against a right handed starter.

This total is too high. Clevinger in his last start gave up zero runs, and he is going to slow down this Rockies offense that has been inconsistent. Freeland has been pitching better as of late, and this game is going to go stay under the total. Back the under to cash.
