Miami Marlins vs San Diego Padres Prediction

Martin Perez has been a disaster this season and isn’t a pitcher I’m thrilled to back. Edward Cabrera is also a young talented pitcher with above average stuff so you can make a case for the Marlins and the plus money. With that said, the Padres are one of the hottest teams in baseball, and they’re not only in the thick of the wild card race but now have a shot to steal the NL West. I’m not going to step in front of the Padres, especially against a Marlins team that’s gutted its roster. Give me the Padres and the cheap price.
