MLB Free Pick: Padres vs Dodgers Betting Odds

MLB Free Pick Padres vs Dodgers Betting Odds: We head back to the ballpark for tonight’s Free Pick as we don’t like anything we see in the MNF “Battle in the Big Apple” pro football match-up. We are also going back to an all cellar dweller contest as we feature the Los Angeles Dodgers hosting the San Diego Padres.

First pitch for this Major League Baseball betting action is slated for 10:10 PM ET on Monday, August 29, 2011, from Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California.

Probable Pitchers: MLB Game Day Preview

We are getting a very inviting pitching match-up in this contest as LHP Clayton Kershaw (16-5, 2.51 ERA) faces RHP Mat Latos, (6-12 3.74 ERA) tonight.

Kershaw is in the thick of the National League Cy Young Award race, and still has a shot at getting to 20 wins on the season. In his last start against the Padres, Kershaw allowed two runs, on six hits, as he pitched a complete game in a Dodgers 6-2 win on Monday August 1, 2011.

Latos has been a hard luck loser on this light hitting Padres team. In his last 64.2 innings pitched, Latos has allowed just 22 earned runs, while striking out 56 batters. San Diego sits 27th overall with 506 runs scored this season.

Baseball Betting Odds: Padres @ Dodgers Free Pick

We head to the sportsbook at the BetDSI online sports betting website to get the odds for our Dodgers vs. Padres Free Pick tonight.

We won’t be surprised if Latos has a strong outing here but we feel Kershaw and the Dodgers is the better side for this baseball betting action from Chavez Ravine tonight.

As much as we like the -1.5 (+145) number in favor of the Dodgers, we are going to tread lightly and take the -175 money line in this one.
