Padres Searching for Power
The absence of Fernando Tatis Jr. has been felt by the San Diego Padres all season long, but especially with the offense. San Diego has less than 40 home runs, and it is missing another bat that can do some serious damage.
Manny Machado has been carrying this lineup up to this point as he leads the team with nine home runs and 32 RBIs. Machado belted a three-run homer on Friday night prompting Brewers starter Corbin Burnes to say, “He’s a good hitter so you have to find multiple ways to get him out.”
Rookie MacKenzie Gore will make the start for the Padres and he is 3-1 with a 1.71 ERA to begin the year. If Gore continues to pitch this well then the Padres are going to be a tough team.
Brewers Battling Through Adversity
The Milwaukee Brewers are dealing with a ton of injuries at this point in the season, especially on the pitching staff. That will force Aaron Ashby to make the start on Saturday and he is just 1-3 with a 2.70 ERA.
Milwaukee has been a tough team to figure out on the offensive side of things as they have been incredibly streaky. The Brewers have belted 70 home runs, but they don’t always put together great at-bats.
Rowdy Tellez is one player that has hit well all season as he leads the team with 10 home runs and 36 RBIs.
