It’s a big weekend in the NL West with the Dodgers hosting the Giants and the Padres traveling to Arizona. Only two games separate the top three teams in the division, and the Diamondbacks are still within striking distance after climbing back to .500 this week. The GoldSheet team offers its thoughts on tonight’s Diamondbacks vs Padres clash, which may feature fewer runs than the oddsmakers are projecting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Diego Padres<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Stephen Kolek’s transition from the bullpen to the starting rotation has been a positive one for the Padres. Kolek has not allowed a run in his last two starts against the Giants and Brewers. In five starts away from home this season, Kolek is 2-0 with an 0.85 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Diego’s offense has been poor away from home this season. Since May 1, the Padres are hitting .243 (No. 19 in MLB) on the road with a .300 on-base percentage (No. 24) and an 88 wRC+ (No. 24).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Diego’s lineup also hasn’t been overly-intimidating against right-hand pitching this season. The Padres are hitting .245 against righties (No. 18) with a .318 on-base percentage (No. 18) and a 100 wRC+ (No. 19).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arizona Diamondbacks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Arizona’s Ryne Nelson is happy that this game is being played in his backyard. Nelson has a 2.67 ERA with an 0.89 WHIP at home this season compared to a road ERA of 7.50. Much like Kolek, Nelson has bounced back-and-forth between the bullpen and the starting rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nelson is coming off a rough outing at hitter-friendly Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati, but prior to that, he allowed one run on nine hits with one walk in his previous 15.2 innings against the Dodgers, Pirates and Nationals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diamondbacks vs Padres Prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Neither team played on Thursday, so both bullpens have had the opportunity to rest and rotate. The roof will be closed at Chase Field this weekend, mitigating some of the factors that help the ball carry in the Arizona heat. The under is 8-1-1 in San Diego’s last ten road games, and all ten of those games had totals lower than the 9.5 that we’re seeing on Friday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
