Another large pod a winner yesterday an we look to go 4-1 in our last 5 with a regular 4-dime pod here on Thursday guaranteed or one day free.


We have a nice pitching match up here today between two guys who have been throwing great.  Vincente Padilla has been great and Mat Latos has been even better with a  4-0 record and 0.80 ERA since June 22nd.  Padilla has not been the same on the road this year as he posts a 4.91 ERA away and a 4.76 ERA during his day starts while Latos at home has a 4-2 record and 2.23 ERA as well as a 2.01 ERA and 3-1 record during 5 day starts.
 
Padres are 19-12 during the day and have hit better during the day than they have at night.  While the Dodgers still at 16-13, but are hitting just .251 (-.16 vs. night) and .699 OPS (-.40 vs. night) are in a big funk right now with just 12 runs in their last 7 games and averaging just 2.49 runs per 9 vs. RHP over their last 10 with a .208 average.  Padres on the other hand are hitting 4.96 runs per 9 vs. RHP in their last 10 and their bullpen has been dominant as well with a 2.03 ERA while the Dodgers are 5.97.  If this comes down to a bullpen game which is a good chance the Padres also have the advantage.
 
Dodgers brought over Scott Podsednick to play today, but his impact at first should be marginal going up against Latos and the Padres pitching at home that has gotten hem a 30-20 record.  Dodgers are 1-6 in Padilla’s last 7 road starts and they are 4-9 in their last 13 road vs. a RH starter.  Padres 35-17 in their last 52 as a favorite -110 to -150.
