1* Free Play OVER Brewers/Padres.

The visitors hand the ball to Taylor Jungmann (9-7, 3.64 ERA) who was shelled for six runs off six hits with three walks in five innings vs. the Cards on Thursday. Jungmann has regressed as the season has progressed, over his last four starts he's given up seven home runs among 25 hits in 19 2/3's innings, leading to 22 runs overall. And unfortunately for Jungmann, a date on the road is not what the doctor ordered to get untracked as he's a poor 4-5 with a ballooned 4.83 ERA away from friendly confines this season. The home side counters with Ian Kennedy (8-15, 4.38 ERA) who gave up four runs off six hits over six innings in a loss to the Rockies on Friday. Kennedy has pretty much been a "gas can" all year, he's served up 29 home runs and 50 walks in 28 starts this season and owns a pedestrian 4.65 ERA in front of the home town crowd thus far. With these two volatile starters squaring off on Thursday night, there's no question that the OVER becomes a viable investment opportunity in this particular matchup.
