Entering Sunday’s play, NL West teams had lost 17 games in a row. That was a stunning stat. The Dodgers and Padres won on Sunday. One thing is certain, on Monday, there will be another NL West win. An NL West team will win a game. That is because the San Diego Padres will visit the San Francisco Giants in a divisional game. Walker Buehler will get the call for the Padres.
The Giants are uncertain as of this writing who their starting pitcher will be. Buehler isn’t the pitcher he once was with the Dodgers. He has a 1-2 record with a 5.40 ERA. No matter who the Giants start, MLB odds suggest the way to go here is over on the runs total.
