MLB Pick
- Over 7.5 (-110) at Bet365 (check our Bet365 Review)
San Diego Padres vs. Los Angeles Dodgers
Wednesday, September 25, 2024 – 10:10 PM ET at Dodger Stadium
The AI Model projects the Dodgers and Padres will combine for 8.5 runs. However, the total is only at 7.5 at Bet365. Therefore, the Over is the play.
The Dodgers Can Do Enough Offensively
Although Dylan Cease is on the mound, the Dodgers have plenty of power potential against right-handers. Los Angeles has hit a .218 ISO and wOBA of .377 with its projected lineup over the last 30 days. The lineup has also struck out only 18.6% of the time against righties.
While Cease has earned a .056 ISO and wOBA of .239 over the last 30 days, he’s only struck out 22.5% of batters. That’s unlike him. However, that only means the Dodgers will put the ball in play more.
Jack Flaherty Struggling Against Righties
The Dodgers’ ace right-hander, Jack Flaherty, has allowed a .294 ISO and wOBA of .395 to his last 39 righties. He’s also allowed 45.8% of fly balls and 50% of hard contact to righties while inducing below 17% of ground balls.
Meanwhile, the Padres have some right-handed bats that can do damage against Flaherty. Fernando Tatis and Manny Machado are both red-hot right-handed hitters. Donovan Solano has also put up quality numbers, and Xander Bogaerts has shown off power over the last 30 days against righties.
The Pick
Despite two known aces on the mound, the Over is the play.
