ASA TOP PLAY 10* ON UNDER the Total - Seattle Mariners @ San Diego Padres, Tuesday at 9:10 PM ET

Chris Paddack starts for the Padres here. The right-hander has been phenomenal in his home starts. Last season Paddack went 6-3 with a 3.06 ERA and a .188 BAA at Petco Park. This year, in his 2nd MLB season, Paddack has a 2.66 ERA in his 4 home starts and has held opponents to a .212 batting average. The Mariners, being an AL team, don't have much familiarity with him and the hitters that do are a combined 6 for 31 against Paddack in his career. Seattle starts Marco Gonzales here. The Mariners southpaw has been fantastic in 3 of his last 4 starts. Gonzales has allowed just 4 earned runs on only 11 hits in 20 and 1 / 3 innings spanning those 3 outings. The Padres lineup has not faced him other than Dee Gordon and he is 0 for 3 in his career against him. Big edges for the pitchers in this one. Seattle is hitting .224 this season which ranks them 26th in the majors out of 30 teams. The Padres have been hitting better and are on a 7-game winning streak but their numbers are a bit skewed too. Their 5 runs in closing out their most recent series came on just 6 hits. In the opener of that series they were held to just 4 runs. Prior to that series San Diego had a couple of 10th inning victories including one that was one on a 10th inning grand slam after they managed just 2 runs through the first 9 innings. Considering all of those factors and the lack of familiarity with Gonzales and much of the Mariners bullpen arms, the Padres will struggle at the plate here and the Mariners will struggle with Paddack as his home dominance continues. Bet the UNDER in San Diego in late night action Tuesday.
