Dodgers vs. Padres Series Betting Preview – June 12
Gambling911.com has your Dodgers vs. Padres series betting preview for Friday’s late game.
This one has an outrageously low total of 6, although that number had moved up to 6.5 at most books by early evening. Only three of ten recent games in this series have stayed UNDER that number. Furthermore, the OVER is 12-3-1 in San Diego’s last 16 overall.
The Dodgers are a -200 road favorite in this one with San Diego being offered up with a line of 180, suggesting this will be a completely lopsided affair, though we believe it could remain competitive.
PITCHING MATCHUP: Dodgers LH Clayton Kershaw (5-3, 3.36 ERA) vs. Padres RH Odrisamer Despaigne (3-4, 4.72)
Kershaw is 12-6 with a 2.33 ERA in 25 career starts against San Diego and received a no-decision on April 6 in which he gave up three runs and six hits over six innings.
Despaigne has lost four of his last five decisions but has pitched well in three of his past four starts. He is 0-2 with a 5.84 ERA in three career appearances (two starts) against the Dodgers.
