The San Diego Padres are looking to stay red hot after a weekend sweep over the Texas Rangers. The Padres scored 16 runs and allowed just 4 runs over the series. Overall, San Diego has won four out of their last five games.

Manny Machado leads the Padres with 20 home runs on the season. When looking at the San Diego Padres Stats – Juan Soto is tied with him as the leader in RBIs, with 64.
Seth Lugo is going to take the mound for the Padres. The 33-year-old comes into the game with a 4-5 record and a 3.62 earned run average. Lugo has struck out 79 batters in 82 innings. In his last start, Lugo went seven innings, allowing three hits and 2 earned runs while striking out 8 batters.
The Colorado Rockies needed a win to avoid getting swept by Oakland. Ty Blach was strong, and Ryan McMahon was the offensive hero on Sunday. The Rockies snapped their four-game losing streak. During the four-game losing streak, the Rockies allowed a total of 30 runs during that game.
Colorado has been very poor pitching this season, with the 29th-best earned run average, at 5.53. The starting pitching has been the biggest issue, with just 24 quality starts on the season. Opponents are hitting .281 on the season.

The San Diego Padres have been good over the last few games and would love nothing more than to keep that going this week. The Padres still feel they have a chance to reach the postseason. If the Padres get hot, they will be in a spot for the wildcard out of the National League.
Look for Lugo to throw the ball well against a Colorado offense that has struggled often this season. The Padres’ offense is also due to get hot and score a bunch of runs. The Padres vs Rockies betting pick: San Diego Padres -1.5 at -150 and the over 12.
While it’s the first game of a series, this one looks like a tough one for Colorado. With inconsistent offense and a pitching staff that struggles to get batters out, this is going to be all San Diego.
- We took the Padres to win by multiple runs and the game to go over 12 runs. This game is all San Diego at 9-4 on Monday.
