The Cardinals visit the Padres. The Cards’ Andre Pallante one-hit the Fish over seven strong, but he gave up 17 runs on 25 hits over his previous 15 ²/₃ innings. San Diego’s Dylan Cease was mauled by the Mets for five runs, but Cease allowed only two runs in his previous 10 ¹/₃. Play $100 on Cease and the Pads.

San Diego has won six in a row, and my Cardinals vs. Padres predictions are betting on that streak to continue. Here are my best MLB picks for this NL showdown on August 2. The St. Louis Cardinals are just 1-5 in their last six contests, while the San Diego Padres are on a six-game win streak after taking the series opener last night.
