San Diego PadresvsBaltimore Orioles
The San Diego Padres roll into Camden Yards tonight sitting at 35-33, taking on a Baltimore Orioles club that's been a hair under .500 at 34-37 and really needs a series win to keep from sliding further down the AL East. Baltimore's the home favorite at -131 with a run-and-a-half on the spread, and the over-under is parked at a tidy 10, which tells you the books think both starters can get into their stuff and give the bullpens a rest.
That said, the Padres have some bats in the heart of the order that can leave the yard in a hurry if the O's starter starts missing his spots late. Bold prediction: San Diego steals one on the road when Baltimore's manager goes to the pen a half-inning too early and the Padres walk it off in the eighth.
