Padres vs Giants Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this series after picking up a series win over the weekend, but San Diego has played the better ball over the last week. The Padres are 13-14 on the road this year, while the Giants are 17-9 at home. San Francisco has struggled to score recently and they will go against Kolek, who has allowed 14 earned runs and 21 hits in his last 16.1 innings. The Padres have scored at least six runs in three of their last five games and they are going against Webb, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in five straight starts. I don’t love what I have seen from Kolek in recent outings, but three of his last four starts have gone over this number. Take the over here.
