A pair of bad offensive teams square off here, which has all the makings of a 2-1 game. Arizona is 26th in baseball in runs scored and on base percentage, while San Diego is last in runs, OBP, batting average, and slugging. Arizona is home, and the UNDER is 6-2-1 when the Diamondbacks are favored. Arizona righty Trevor Cahill has allowed three or fewer runs in nine of 10 starts, and the UNDER is 7-3 in the Padres last 10 games vs. a right-handed starter. San Diego is 33-16-3 UNDER the total on the road with a total between seven and 8.5. San Diego has a good arm going in Odrisamer Despaigne (3.55 ERA) with a 2.41 ERA against Arizona in 18 innings. The UNDER is 5-1 in Despaigne's last six starts against a team with a losing record. In addition, the UNDER is 18-6-2 in Cahill's starts as a favorite, including 7-0-1 UNDER the total when Cahill faces these light-hitting Padres. Play San Diego/Arizona UNDER the total.
