The San Diego Padres will not come cheap but should get the job done against the Colorado Rockies when they wrap up their 3-game set today at Petco Park. When you take the Rockies out of the mountains, they are just 17-42. On the flip side, the Padres are heating up, winning 8 of their last 10, and they are closing in on the LA Dodgers for the lead in the NL West. The pitching matchup today favors San Diego. The Friars will give the nod to Matt Waldron who has a 3.89 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP. The Rockies will have Cal Quantrill tapping the rubber. He has a 4.50 ERA and a 1.39 WHIP. Consider the Friars.
