San Diego lost for the fifth time in seven games and was shut out for seven innings by Joe Ryan in a 7-2 defeat against the Twins on Sunday. The Padres' pitching has faltered lately, allowing an average of 6.3 runs in their past seven games. Baltimore will look to take advantage as it scored 21 runs in a three-game series at San Francisco, although it lost two of them. Kyle Bradish returned from Tommy John surgery and struck out 10 against Boston on Tuesday. He allowed just two runs on four hits in six innings. San Diego has lost nine of 12 against AL East teams. Dylan Cease has allowed 13 runs (11 earned) in only 12 2/3 innings in his past three starts. Cease is 6-11 with a 4.82 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP in 2025. Take the Orioles.
