San Diego take on the Cubs on Thursday night and will be looking to win for the second straight night after defeating Chicago 8-3 on Wednesday.
Tyson Ross gets the nod for San Diego and has been solid in 2014, he is 8-10 with a 2.70 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP in 21 starts this year. Over his last 3 outings, Ross has pitched to a 1.35 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 20 IP.
The Cubs will send righty with Edwin Jackson to the mound and has been very poor this season, he is 5-10 with a 5.61 ERA and 1.56 WHIP in 20 trips to the mound in 2014. Jackson is 0-5 with a 6.95 ERA and 1.81 WHIP over 9 career starts against San Diego, his team has gone 1-8 in those 9 games.
I like the Padres tonight with a huge advantage on the mound, Even though they are on the road, I handicapped the Padres to be a (- 140) chalk tonight. San Diego’s bullpen has been stingy on the road this season, In 135 IP, they have combined for a 2.94 ERA and 1.14 WHIP
