If you like good pitching matchups, Monday’s MLB card is for you. We’ve got some absolute gems on the card, including Musgrove vs. Alcantara, Carrasco vs. Strider, Urias vs. Peralta and Castillo vs. Ohtani. Not too shabby to ease back into the work week.
If you missed from last night with me and pinch-hit host Brady Kannon, remedy that situation at your convenience today. HOUR 1 | HOUR 2
Plenty to get to with today’s card after an interesting weekend of baseball.
Padres/Nationals: The Padres drew 18 walks in the three-game series against the Nationals over the weekend. That’s an area in which Juan Soto and Josh Bell really help, so San Diego’s offensive projections should go up with the increase in baserunners. They lost the middle game 4-3, but drew eight walks to go with eight hits and went 2-for-12 with RISP with 13 runners stranded, so that game could’ve gone differently as well. Against below average control guys, their team total overs are reasonable bets.
