00:00Tom, but some late games tonight. Intriguing to say the least. And we mentioned it. Padres coming
00:07off a very successful road trip. They've been playing. Finally, the bats are starting to get
00:13going. Michael King on the mound at home, taking on Lorenzen there for the Rockies. I mean, are we
00:21so convinced the Padres have figured it out that we're laying this kind of price with them?
00:28Uh, that's a big price in any capacity. In any sport, you know, we're dealing with a team
00:34that's like turning things around. Here's the question I want to know is like, are people
00:37betting on the Padres or are they betting against the Rockies? Because that's always the dynamic
00:43that we have when we're dealing with a team that is so negatively viewed as the Rockies
00:48are, especially given the recent history that they are just woefully underperformed is obviously
00:54isn't even the words to put it. They're just so terrible. And Michael Lorenzen, it just
00:58isn't a good pitcher. But do we really trust the Padres at a $2 favorite? Yes, they're the
01:04better team. We know that. They've been hot as of late, but I still don't want to lay a
01:08$2.20 price on Michael King. I would look to lay the minus one and a half and get plus
01:13100 on it before I lay the money line.
01:17I agree. I mean, that's just now granted, you know, the bullpen certainly advantage there,
01:23but we have seen this Rockies team time, especially out West, whether it's the Dodgers,
01:29they're feisty, right? I mean, when you least expect it, they're kind of feisty. I call me
01:35crazy. I think Lorenzen is just happy to anytime he can pitch outside of cores, he went and got
01:41paid. But I don't know what he was thinking. Going to Colorado to pitch there is a different
01:49ball game, but he has been better on the road as almost every pitcher is for Colorado. Maybe
01:56a run and a half. Should we take the run and a half with Colorado?
02:00You want to take the run and a half with Colorado? Again, I'm not a believer in the Padres.
02:06I haven't been all season. Their defense, their offense, excuse me, is terrible. And I know they
02:12turned things around as of late. They put together a good road trip. They swept the Marlins. They're
02:17really scoring runs against the Braves, even though they lost that series. I've never been a believer
02:21in the Padres this season. So if people want to fade them, I have no issue with that.
02:26Yep. I would look to the under too. Again, that is one of the most, you know, offensive,
02:33oppressive fields in all Petco is just horrific for hitters in a big, big way. So if you're expecting
02:40all big wild shootout, I don't think you're getting it. I think you're going to get a bit
02:44of a pitcher's duel in that one there.
