AFTERNOON NATIONAL LEAGUE TOTAL "COACH'S CLINIC!" > > 57-29 +$15K MLB YTD!
(MLB) Arizona vs. San Diego,
Total: 7.50 | 104.00 Under
Result: Loss
The set-up: This is a big game. For both teams. The Diamondbacks are desperate to avoid a sweep, while San Diego is desperate to post a sweep. These are two highly motivated clubs and I think it's going to ultimately translate into offensive production at the end of the night. The visitors hand the ball to Merrill Kelly, while the home side counters with Eric Lauer.

The pitchers: Kelly (4-4, 4.21 ERA) is 1-0 vs. the Padres, but he's given up seven runs off 13 hits spanning two starts and 11 frames to finish with a 5.73 ERA and 1.46 WHIP.

Lauer (2-4, 5.24) is 0-2 vs. the Diamondbacks already this year, getting shelled for seven runs off 17 hits with a 6.30 ERA and 1.80 WHIP.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Arizona has seen the total go over the number in 12 of 18 vs. the division already, while SD has seen the total fly over in seven of ten already this season following a win by one run. This number is low, play the over.

Padres/D-Backs over
