Pittsburgh Pirates vs San Diego Padres Prediction & Picks - MLB

 by Carlos Zabala | in MLB Picks

The Pirates' 8-game losing streak continues. This streak began on August 6 against the Diamondbacks, and continued with consecutive sweeps against the Padres and Dodgers. On Monday, they lost the first game against the Padres again 2-1 but this time at Petco Park. In addition, the Pirates during that 8-game losing streak were underdogs on 7 occasions. By Tuesday, they will be more underdogs than ever when the Padres go out to play with odds to win as high as -225.

While the Pirates have Snekes, the likely rookie of the year, the only one who could challenge him for the title is the Padres, Merill. The rookie is 11-for-35 with two doubles, a triple and 4 HRs in the last 10 games. Merill, Profar and Arraez are all in the top 20 players with the highest AVG in MLB, all above 289.

King is the Padres' scheduled pitcher for Tuesday. The 39-year-old right-hander has been a solid and consistent pitcher this season. He is 9-6 with a 3.34 ERA, has pitched almost all of 2024 but had to skip one outing due to injury prior to his last start, in his return against the Pirates on August 7 he struck out 7 in 5.0 IP and allowed 3 ER.

Our Pittsburgh Pirates vs San Diego Padres Prediction

The Pirates' hitting hasn't been bad during the losing streak. Over the last 10 games they are averaging 4.3 runs per game, a nice 9.3 hits and 0.9 HR per game. However, the Pirates' starting pitching has had a month to forget. As of August 13, the Pirates' pitching has already had almost half the hits with 96 that they allowed last month, and they are just 5 HR away from matching what they allowed in July with 18 games to go. Our prediction for Padres vs Pirates is: Padres -1.5, -108 at DraftKings.
