Seattle Mariners vs San Francisco Giants

Today’s matchup is between the San Francisco Giants (23-21) and the San Diego Padres (28-17). The Giants have won 5 games in a row and the Padres have won the last 4 games in a row.

The Giants are starting Trevor Cahill (RHP), on the mound who is 0-0 in 5 starts on the season pitching a 2.65 ERA, 4.47 FIP, 2.61 wOBA, K% of 27.8%, BB% of 15.3%, 87.1 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.18 WHIP in 17 innings pitched.

The Padres are starting Chris Paddack (RHP), who is 3-4 in 9 starts with a 4.75 ERA, 4.59 FIP, .337 wOBA, K% of 24.2%, BB% of 4.5%, 90.8 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.25 WHIP in 47.1 innings pitched.

The Giants are the 28th best in the Majors in Relieving Pitching while the Padres are 12th.

On the hitting side, the Giants have a .34 wOBA and a .337 OBP. The Padres have a .353 wOBA and a .343 OBP. The Giants have 60 HRs this season while the Padres have 36 HRs.

I do believe that the Padres get the win but at +172 I like the Giants odds as long as Cahill stays in the game and even if he exits early the Giants batting will keep them competitive so I also like +1.5 Giants.
