Diamondback vs Padres: MLB Game Total Call

Padres: Solid June start has turned into a swoon

Following a descent 5-2 run to open June, San Diego has stumbled some as the Padres are just 6-11 over their last 17 games. The Friars have played in some fairly high scoring games recently as 20 of their last 29 contests have produced at least seven total runs. The Padres average 4.15 runs scored while giving up 4.61 runs per game. RHP Andrew Cashner (2-9 ERA 4.35) gets the call for San Diego.

Diamondbacks: Streaky desert snakes lack contenders consistency

Arizona fans have been on a rollercoaster ride for most of the season as the D-Backs have won or lost more than four straight games just once this season. Prior to their 4-2 loss to the Padres last night, Arizona had a stretch of tens games where they alternated wins and loses with eight of those contests producing seven or more runs. RHP Jeremy Hellickson (5-4 ERA 4.94) will toe the rubber for Arizona.

MLB Game Total Prediction: As a fun part of our research, we like to predict the prices on contests we forecast before we head to the sportsbook. While we are close more or often than not – we were a bit off on the game total line here. With two relative gas cans squaring off in the battle on the bump, we had the number pegged at eight total runs – making the 6.5 price look like a gift. We are backing the OVER with a 500 unit wager on the "Total Runs" line posted on the SportsBetting.ag betting board.
