The Reds are coming into this game with a 2-8 record overall and they are 2-6 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 8 of their last 9 games and are coming into this one on a 6 game losing streak. They just lost their 4-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers getting swept 4-0 and they are playing the 2nd game of a 3-game series with the Padres on Tuesday night. This will be the 2nd game of the series on Tuesday with the series opener still to be played on Monday. Rookie pitcher Nick Lodolo is the starting pitcher for them on Monday while Reiver Sanmartin will be on the mound for them here on Tuesday. He is 0-1 with a 6.14 ERA this season. His team lost their last 2 games this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 0 ER, 0 HRs, and 0 BB with 2 Ks on 2 hits in 5 IP against the LA Dodgers. They scored 7 runs in their last series averaging just under 2 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 26 runs against them averaging just over 6 runs allowed per game.

 

The Padres are coming into this game with a 6-5 record overall and they are 2-2 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 2 of their last 3 games but are coming into this one off of a win in their last game which snapped a 2 game losing streak that they were on. They just tied their 4-game series against the Atlanta Braves 2-2 and they are playing the 2nd game of a 3-game series with the Reds on Tuesday night. This will be the 2nd game of the series on Tuesday with the series opener still to be played on Monday. Sean Manaea is the starter for them on Monday while Joe Musgrove will be throwing the first pitch for them here on Tuesday. He is 1-0 with a 1.42 ERA this season. His team won their last 2 games with him as the starter. In his last start, he allowed 0 earned runs, 0 homers, and 0 BB with 6 strikeouts on 4 hits through 6.2 innings played against the Atlanta Braves. They scored 18 runs in their last series averaging just over 4 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 12 runs against them averaging 3 runs allowed per game.

 

The Padres are coming into this game coming off of a tied series in their last one but they have been very inconsistent with their play this season. They have won some of their games with pitching, not being able to score a lot in those games, and they have won games by just burying teams in runs where they cannot come back. They are going up against a Reds team that has already started their new season on a big losing streak and just got swept by the Dodgers in their last series. They also have Sanmartin starting in this game and he is coming off of a start where he played much better and did not even allow a run. The Padres have Musgrove starting though and he is coming off of 2 great starts already and will be looking to stay hot in this game as he is off to a great start. The Padres have the pitching advantage in this game and they have been playing better than the Reds anyway as the Reds have been losing a lot of games. The best bet here is on the Padres to win on the runline as the Cincinnati hitters will struggle to hit the ball on Musgrove here and the Padres will take advantage of a slumping Reds team.

"Aggressive use of his fastball, all-count breaking balls. He didn't walk anybody. He was really, really good against a great lineup." - Bob Melvin on his team’s win against the Braves on Sunday.
