San Diego Padres vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction & Picks - MLB

 by Stephen Abiola | in MLB Picks

Pittsburgh Pirates (56-55) and San Diego Padres (61-52) will play the closing match of this three-game series on Thursday evening. The Pirates' pitching has impressed this season, led by rookie Paul Skenes, who made his 15th start against the Diamondbacks last weekend. Despite being 6.0 games off the top, the Pirates are still within striking distance in the NL Central. They are only 0.5 games behind the second-placed Cardinals. A win will also be crucial for San Diego in this matchup. The Padres are second in the NL West, just 4.5 games behind the stuttering Dodgers. They have taken advantage of this, winning eight of their last 10 contests. Prior to this series, the Padres bounced back from a game one defeat against the Rockies to win 2-1. Impressively, San Diego has scored six or more runs in six of their last seven games.
