#959/960 ASA PLAY ON 8* Over 8.5 Runs – Colorado Rockies @ San Diego Padres, Saturday at 8:40 PM ET - Both these pitchers struggled in spring training. Expected starters are Jose Urena for Rockies and Michael Wacha for Padres. We like the over here regardless of the starting pitchers as San Diego is now 0-2 on the season dropping the first two games of this series with the Rockies and we expect a response at the plate tonight. Colorado now has 11 runs on 26 hits in the first two games of this series. The Rockies are a confident bunch right now and getting some strong at-bats but the Padres have a very solid lineup and get back track here. Urena was hit hard last season and lefties hit him at a .327 clip. Keep in mind, San Diego had 5 left-handed sticks in the lineup Thursday versus the righty Marquez and will likely do the same against Urena. Then you look at their right-handed lumber and it is dangerous with guys like Boegaerts and Machado plus you have a red-hot Kim off a 3-hit game. The Padres will hit well but the Rockies too as Wacha had struggled 3 straight seasons before last year's success and we are not convinced, based on his spring too, that he is going to be able to come close to duplicating that 2022 success this season. That is particularly true early on as it looks like he could be slow out of the gate. Also, weather looks good tonight with temps in the low 60's to upper 50’s and light winds blowing. Over is the call tonight.
