Pick
New York has played a lot better over the last few weeks compared to the start of the season, while San Diego has finally put a few wins together. The Padres really struggled to start the year, but they have won three of their last four games and their offense is starting to wake up. San Diego is starting Joe Musgrove, who has allowed eight earned runs over his last 10.2 innings pitched. New York is starting Randy Vasquez, who is making his season debut for the Yankees. I think we are going to see a higher scoring game here, so I am taking the over.
