The San Diego Padres are set to face the Colorado Rockies again on Saturday in a matchup that features two of the league’s hottest bats. Fernando Tatis Jr. continues to shine for San Diego, boasting a .375 batting average, while Kyle Farmer has been a bright spot for the Rockies, ranking among the league’s top hitters with a .351 average. Despite Colorado’s offensive talent, the team has struggled overall and entered the weekend at the bottom of the NL West standings.
The Rockies avoided being swept by the Brewers earlier this week with a 7-2 victory in the final game of that series, but their momentum didn’t carry into San Diego. They were shut out in Friday’s series opener and continue to struggle on the road, holding a 1-5 record away from Coors Field. With an offense averaging just 3.3 runs per game and 8.2 hits, Colorado has been unable to consistently support its pitching staff.
While both teams are sending out unproven arms, the Padres’ more consistent offense and home-field advantage could tip the balance in their favor.

Our Colorado Rockies vs San Diego Padres Prediction
Chase Dollander will be on the mound for Colorado in this game, making his first career appearance against the Padres. While Dollander earned a win in his debut, he carries a 7.20 ERA and has given up runs despite flashing potential with six strikeouts. He’ll face a potent Padres lineup that’s capable of producing runs even in Petco Park, traditionally known as a pitcher-friendly environment.
San Diego counters with Kyle Hart, who also makes his first career start against the Rockies. Hart has had a rough start to the season, entering the game with an 11.12 ERA and just four strikeouts. He’s seen as the weak link in the Padres’ rotation, and Colorado’s offense could take advantage if they manage to get going early.
Still, the Padres’ bats give them a solid chance to bounce back from Friday’s quiet showing. Tatis Jr. is leading the charge, and San Diego has the depth to produce against a rookie starter who’s still finding his footing. A win here would not only secure the series lead but also help the Padres stay competitive in a tough NL West. Our prediction for San Diego Padres vs. Colorado Rockies: Padres to win.
