The Padres are drawing 70% of the betting tickets at -117, with the public jumping on them at home. But be cautious—this line screams near coin-flip, and sharp bettors might sniff out value on Texas at +107. Petco Park is pitcher-friendly, and with a total of 8 (evenly juiced at -110), oddsmakers expect a low-scoring chess match.
Jack Leiter takes the ball for the Rangers, and while the pedigree is there, he’s still ironing out his command. Miami transplant Tyler Kolek toes the rubber for San Diego—big arm, but still raw. Both lineups have power, but situational hitting may be the difference.
Padres are the lean, but the smarter play may be the UNDER if both starters limit damage early.
