San Diego won two of three against the Cubs in early April and it comes into this game winning four of five although the Padres fell to Arizona 11-4 on Sunday. Chicago has lost five of nine and will start Justin Steele for the first time since March 28 when he suffered a hamstring injury. Yu Darvish goes for the Padres and he has a 2.52 ERA and a 0.93 WHIP in six starts against the Cubs in his career. The Padres are 9-2 in road night games this year and Darvish comes off five shutout innings on three hits against Cincinnati on Tuesday and the Padres have won his past three starts. The San Diego bullpen has been decent this season with 10 saves and a 1.23 WHIP. Chicago's relievers have a 4.57 ERA and a 1.40 WHIP. Take the Padres as a Max Play.
