Arizona Diamondbacks vs San Diego Padres. The MLB pick for this game is the San Diego Padres. The Arizona D-Backs show value as an underdog on Monday against the San Diego Padres.

San Diego will start Ryan Weathers on the mound as Joe Musgrove is not in the pitching rotation. Arizona played well against the Dodgers and should find some wins in this series.

The Padres are only favored in this game due to the name recognition of some of their biggest stars. And while the star power of San Diego should hold some weight, it shouldn’t be the be-all and end-all.

Prediction: The San Diego Padres win 6-4.
