Shane’s Free Pick

The Padres are going to get the job done here. Waldron has been good his last two starts and he’s going to be good again here. Waldron gave up only one run in the last start and he’s going tl lockdown again this game. Look for the Giants bats to really struggle here, and that is going to be the difference here. Back the Padres on the money line to cash. It’s also a lean on the under to cash.
