Obviously Petco park is a pitchers park, and the Padres have struggled mightily there to score. They are on 5 game home losing streak, and are batting horrid RISP %.
BUT day games have favored the Padre offense, Carlos Quentin is sitting today (batting less than .200 in past 2 games), Kotsay is in his place today, whom has been batting well for the Pads (.270 avg is well for the Pads), and Chase Headley has hit safely in 7 straight games.
Now I would never put any money on the Padres to win this game, especially against Texas. However the over listed @ 7 is a great bet esp. when opposed by the best offensive team in the Majors.
The Padres should account for more runs in this day game, and Rangers will be the Rangers. This game should go over in the day.
Texas: .297 team-avg. during their 5 game win streak.
San Diego: Pitcher Anthony Bass was a great reliever but has struggled starting this year 0-3 8.89 ERA and .312 opp Avg. in his last five starts, even tho his k/bb and WHIP aren't bad.
Over 7.
I'll be at the game, Padres will suck however!
