San Diego Padres vs Chicago Cubs Picks

Wrigley Field

<p>The Chicago Cubs and San Diego Padres are both looking to end losing streaks as their 4 game series gets underway at Wrigley Field on Monday night. This will be the second series of the year for the two teams, after San Diego took 2 of 3 out west last month.</p>
<p>The Cubs enter the series losers of 6 straight games. Their most recent series was a trip to Yankee Stadium, in which New York absolutely pummeled them. They were outscored 28-5 in 3 games, and they surrendered an alarming 11 home runs to the Bronx Bombers.</p>
<p>The Padres enter on a much smaller streak, losing the last 2 games of their series against the Colorado Rockies. This series kicks off a 7 game road trip in which the Padres will play every day this week.</p>
<p>The teams are on different paths, as San Diego is playoff hopeful, and the Cubs are just looking to turn their season around and get back to winning baseball before the All-Star Break. According to <a href="https://pa.betrivers.com/?page=sportsbook&amp;l=RiversPittsburgh#event/1018283057">BetUS</a>, the Padres are the favorite to hand the Cubs their 7th straight loss.</p>

</ul>
<h2 id="f54bk">Yu Darvish Home/Road Splits</h2>
<p>This season, Darvish has struggled on the road. His ERA is 5.82 away from home, compared to his 1.35 ERA at PETCO Park. However, aside from this season, Darvish has pitched well on the road in his career.</p>
<h3 id="86rt9">Career Record</h3>
<ul>
<li>Home: 48-36</li>
<li>Away: 36-34</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ftri5">Career ERA</h3>
<ul>
<li>Home: 3.62</li>
<li>Away: 3.50</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="bnt0c">Career AVG Against</h3>
<ul>
<li>Home: .220</li>
<li>Away: .217</li>
</ul>
<p>Aside from the record, Darvish has had more success on the road in his career. He will be making his second career start against his former team on Monday. In his one previous meeting he took the loss, but only allowed 2 runs and 3 hits through 7 innings of work.</p>
<h2 id="h8gp">Chicago’s Pitching Woes</h2>
<p>The Cubs will send their starter, Justin Steele, to the mound on Monday night. He is in search of only his second win of the season in his 12th start.</p>
<p>Steele pitched well his last time out, but picked up a no-decision in the loss to the Cardinals. He went 7 innings in that game, but other than that one instance, he has lasted 6 innings just one other time this season.</p>
<p>The Cubs are surrendering the most home runs in the league. They have given up 83 through 59 games played, including 11 in their three game series against the Yankees.</p>
<p>Along with the long ball, Chicago can’t keep runs off the board. They are Bottom 5 in the league in both runs allowed and pitching ERA. Their 18 runs allowed yesterday is a big reason why they are in trouble. During their 6 game losing streak, they have given up 5 or more runs all but one time.</p>
<h2 id="98vh1">San Diego Padres vs. Chicago Cubs Prediction and Best Bets</h2>
<p><strong>Padres vs. Cubs Prediction:</strong> Padres to win</p>
<p><strong>Padres vs. Cubs Best Bets: </strong>Padres -1.5 (+126 at <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/baseball">BetOnline</a>)</p>
<p>The pitching matchup is a good reason to bet the run line for the Padres. They send their veteran to the mound with plenty of success on the road. The Cubs will struggle with Justin Steele on the hill again.</p>
<p>The Padres will want to show off their power early in the game. The Cubs give up too many home runs to make them competitive in a matchup like this one.  Look for a 7th straight loss for the Cubbies as they continue to search for answers in a disappointing season.</p>
