Colorado surprised the Padres winning the first two on the road. However, this team was 27-54 on the road last year, the second-worst road record in baseball. Starter Jose Urena had a forgettable first season with the Rockies last year (5.01 ERA), his third different team in three seasons. Batters hit .285 off him and he's not helped but a poor defense or relief staff. San Diego is loaded with talent on a team that was Top 10 in fielding percentage and an offense that was 13th in runs scored, Top 10 in on-base percentage. They made it to the NLCS and have the third-highest payroll in the league. Michael Wacha's teams are 16-7 when he starts, including 12-4 after a loss. And the Padres are 87-65 after two straight home losses in divisional play. Play San Diego.
