Daily Pick - Los Angeles Dodgers vs San Diego Padres


Written by: Josh Hammer, The Reserve Clause

Well it looks like C.J. Wilson couldn't hold his own yesterday. A matter of fact, there probably wasn't anything that he could hold! Let's shoot our pick back to the west coast for some better luck!

MLB Pick for August 1, 2011:

Spread: Los Angeles Dodgers +1.5/San Diego Padres -1.5
Over/Under: 5.5

Tonight, the Dodgers are pitching their stud Clayton Kershaw (12-4, 2.72 ERA) and the Padres are pitching Cory Luebke (2-3, 2.57 ERA). The Padres have been sturggling this past week and with Kershaw coming to town, I look for the Padres struggles to continue tonight. San Diego ranks in the bottom 5 in runs scored and team batting average in the Majors. The Dodgers lead the season series 6-3. The Padres do lead the Majors in stolen bases this season but I look for Kershaw to minimize allowed baserunners. Look for Clayton Kershaw's dominant pitching to bring home a W for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
