SAN DIEGO +100 (Peavy/Lohse) – 8:15 pm ET #953

The Padres vastly underachieved during the first half of the season, and they will now be a value team during the final three months of the regular season. This is evident tonight as we get one of the best pitchers in the league, Jake Peavy, at a nice underdog price.

Peavy has a fantastic 2.47 ERA and 1.12 WHIP this season with a powerful 93-27 strikeout/walk ratio, and he dominated the Cardinals in two appearances last year, allowing 0 runs and only 6 hits in 13 innings of work.
