Fargo's MLB Saturday Underdog Double Play (SWEEP)

is a play on the SAN DIEGO PADRES as part of our MLB Saturday Underdog Double Play. After snapping a three-game losing streak on Wednesday, the Padres have dropped the first two games of this series as the offense has been handcuffed by scoring just one run in each game. The Padres are now 3.5 games behind the Dodgers in the National League West and they really could use a win and not get too far back in the standing as the All Star break looms. The Padres are 25-17 on the road which is the fourth best record in baseball behind the Dodgers, Yankees and Astros and the second best in the National League. Pitching has dominated overall and San Diego gives the ball to Yu Darvish who is having a very solid season and over his last four starts, he has a 1.61 ERA and 0.75 WHIP. The Padres are 20-7 in their last 27 games after allowing five runs or more in their previous game. The Dodgers have won three straight games after the Friday win behind another great performance from Tony Gonsolin who improved to 10-0 on the season. Los Angeles avoided a series sweep at Colorado with an 8-4 win on Wednesday to maintain its lead in the division which has now been extended. The Dodgers have been up and down over the last month as they are 15-14 over their last 29 games and they are back home where they are 22-11 but that includes a 7-7 record in their last 14 games here. Tyler Anderson had a great run of three straight starts by not allowing a run, covering 20 innings but has come back down to earth with a 4.83 ERA over his last four outings. The Dodgers are just 23-24 in their last 47 games when playing against a teams with a winning percentage between .540 and .620. Here, we play on National League road underdogs with a money line of +125 to +175 that are hitting .250 or less going up against a team with a bullpen whose ERA is 3.75 or better, in July games. This situation is 27-13 (67.5 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (959) San Diego Padres
