Money Line: -149.00 Padres (SDP) (Home)
Result: Win
#904 ASA PLAY ON San Diego Padres -150 over Los Angeles Dodgers, Tuesday at 9:08 PM ET - Certainly -150 is not a small price but, based on how we rate this match-up, this price should actually be much higher and that means solid line value with the home side here. The Padres not only have the home field edge, they also gathered a lot of momentum with the upset underdog win at Dodger Stadium on Sunday. San Diego got a huge blowout road win and now come back home with momentum and confidence clearly on their side. That confidence factor also extends to this pitching match-up here. Michael King has plenty of it right now for the Padres while the same can certainly not be said for the Dodgers Walker Buehler. The LA right-hander went 1-6 with a 5.39 ERA and a .289 BAA this season. Buehler also struggled in his only start at San Diego this season and did not make it out of the 4th inning in that one. Overall he struggled on the road this season with an 0-2 record and a 6.53 ERA in his 7 starts away from Dodger Stadium this season. King, on the other hand, comes into this start in strong current form. King had a slow start to this season that started in March and carried all the way through April. However, from May onwards King allowed 2 earned runs or less in 20 of 24 starts. Amazingly, in those 20 starts he allowed a total of only 20 earned runs. Yes, an average of only 1 earned run per start. Also, King in his only home start against the Dodgers this season pitched a 7-inning scoreless gem. Overall, King has not allowed any earned runs in 12 innings spanning his last two starts versus the Dodgers. San Diego has won 46 of last 66 games dating back to just after the All-Star break. Considering all of the above, this is solid line value here with the home team. Lay it with the Padres! Take San Diego!
