Premium Pick

San Diego inexplicably is 13-19 at home and 17-10 on the road and the Padres are at Kansas City tonight and will start Dylan Cease, who has a 0.96 WHIP overall and a 4-0 record with a .159 opponent batting average in road games. The Padre bullpen is No. 2 in the National League with a 1.15 WHIP and tied for third with 17 saves. San Diego has won six of Cease's past nine starts. The Royals have lost four of five, including 7-6 to Minnesota on Thursday when they blew a 4-0 lead. Michael Wacha is 4-5 with a 4.31 ERA for the Royals, who have lost four straight against a team that allowed at least five runs its previous game. San Diego has won five road games in a row against right-handed starters and six straight interleague road games overall. The UNDER is 4-0 when Cease is a favorite of -110 to -150 and the Padres have stayed UNDER eight of nine after scoring two or fewer runs their previous game. San Diego is 4-1 UNDER its past five games. Take the Padres and the UNDER.
