00:00all right meanwhile uh this put up or shut up time for the san diego padres they got a set
00:05coming up with the braves this week and then i'll see them in miami this weekend the braves
00:09are light favorites here minus 134 padres plus 114 they've been tinkering with the roster and
00:17the lineup a little bit the padres tom have struggled all season long it's just nothing
00:22that they've done has turned to gold usually this is when they get kind of hot at the end of
00:27the
00:27year and get themselves in but i don't know kind of feel like the braves are going to take this
00:32series in some way do you think that starts tonight i do ultimately i have no faith in the
00:39padres i don't think people should be looking at a extreme recency bias of what they did yesterday
00:46scoring nearly 20 runs against the royals they lost that series versus the royals which is
00:51embarrassing to say the least the padres have one of the worst offenses in baseball the braves
00:57are seemingly finding their footing i think they are in a spot to really gain some positive
01:02momentum between the performances that they put up against a decent texas team they're getting the
01:08offense going drake baldwin looks amazing over the past few days and reports are that acuna
01:12is going to be coming back at thursday friday saturday whatever it is at the end of this week i
01:17think that
01:17this is the spot that the praise i'm not going to say fully turn the corner but it's a spot
01:21for them to
01:22get back on the right foot in a very tight nl east and and a wild card race overall i
01:28like the braves
01:28to win the series i think they take two out of three yeah and bryce elder will pitch she's been
01:33up and
01:33down for the braves jp sears had a really good start against la a couple of weeks ago but beyond
01:39that
01:40izzy ra is pushing like six for the season this is not san diego's best starter and here we are
01:44four games
01:45into the second half of the season so braves in first place padres still trying to get themselves
01:50back into wild guard position because everybody is just too far back of the los angeles dodgers all
01:57right let's take a look at another matchup tonight the chicago cubs are playing good baseball seems like
02:03they're cruising toward the postseason even despite all of the issues that they've had to starting
02:07pitching they made a trade over the weekend to get aaron savali who's pitched for several teams in the
02:12last several years detroit at chicago tonight not a lot of faith in the cubbies though as we're looking
02:20at fandu's line here at minus 118 but the scary part about this one tonight tom it's been the summer
02:26at wrigley look at the total tonight 11 and a half usually when i see totals like this in chicago
02:34i either go over or i don't play the game at all because i have no idea what's going to
02:39happen tonight
02:40we have hot temperatures we have wind blowing out 15 16 miles per hour to essentially straight away
02:46center field tonight and like you said when the cubs who are an absolute roller coaster of a hot and
02:52cold
02:52team when they're hot they can score 10 runs by themselves i'm gonna say especially not no only at
02:59home because they can't score on the road apparently but only at home they can put up eight 10 runs
03:03in a
03:03hurry and detroit's got a good enough offense with good enough hitters against tyone who i haven't been
03:09convinced about in years that they could probably get six of their own so to see this game end 10
03:156 8 6
03:16on either side wouldn't surprise me i wouldn't play the money line i play the total and i play it
03:20over
03:20i think we're going to see some offense tonight
03:22you
