#909/910 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Under 8 Runs – San Diego Padres @ Milwaukee Brewers, Monday at 7:40 PM ET – Chris Paddack is rounding back into form for the Padres and has a 1.38 ERA this month and averaging nearly a strikeout per inning in May. The first two games of this series snuck over the total. Monday's game was 5-0 going to the top of the 9th but miraculously went over the total when San Diego scored 3 in the top of the 9th. Yesterday's game also got over the total, just barely, but this was despite the teams combining for only 7 hits in the game! It was another strange result where a game went over the total that should not have. That has been the story in each of the first two games of this series and we see that coming to an end here. The Brewers have had one big game at the plate in their last 6 home games but, in the other 5 games as a host Milwaukee has scored an average of only 2 runs per game. After getting just 2 hits in yesterday's game, the Brewers will struggle again here versus a tough Padres starting pitcher. Speaking of tough pitchers, Eric Lauer is projected to come up strong here against his former team. Lauer is coming off a dominating start at the AAA level where he struck out 12 in 5 scoreless innings! This season he has a 2.87 ERA with the Brewers and wants to make the most of this outing against the team that he started his career with. San Diego has a .364 slugging percentage against lefties this season and that is one of the worst marks in the majors as the Padres rank 24th. This will be the Padres first time facing their former teammate. As for Paddack, he has a 1.80 ERA in his two starts against the Brewers in his career. That said, all signs point to an under here. Per our computer math model, this game lands around 5 to 6 runs and even if it reaches 7 that is still a winning ticket. We like the odds being in our favor for a very well-pitched affair in this one! Bet the UNDER
