Game 1 Showdown: Can the Underdog Padres Silence the Cubs in the 2025 NL Wild Card Series?
I love this price for San Diego because it has an edge in the starting pitching matchup, the best bullpen in baseball, and has a hotter and deeper lineup. The Cubs were 30 games above .500 against teams with losing records this season, but were eight games below .500 vs. winning teams.Â
This season, the Padres are 5-1 in Pivetta’s road starts as an underdog. Albeit that one loss was 7-1 to the Cubs in April. Regardless, according to FanGraphs, Pivetta is tied for 59th among MLB starters in Stuff+, and Boyd is tied for 118th.
