April 27, 2025
img4:10 PM Eastern

Tampa Bay ends a six-game road trip. The offense is tied for 14th in runs scored. They've lost all five starts made by Zack Littell (5.28 ERA), including getting outscored 10-3 in his two road starts. San Diego's offense is ninth in the majors in on-base percentage, 12th in slugging, and 10th in steals. The Padres are 12-3 at home and play their third straight at home. Starter Randy Vasquez has a 0.82 ERA at home after having a 3.24 ERA in 41+ innings here last season. The bullpen is No. 1 in ERA (1.61), so back home field. Play San Diego.

Tampa Bay at San Diego

April 26, 2025
img8:40 PM Eastern

San Diego lost just its second home game of the season to fall to 12-2 at Petco Park, but the Padres will get an opportunity to bounce back against the Rays and Ryan Pepiot, who allowed seven runs on 10 hits in nine innings against them in 2024. Tampa Bay has lost three of Pepiot's five starts this season. Dylan Cease had one bad outing against the Athletics, but the Padres have won his other four starts, including 3-2 over Houston on Sunday when he allowed two runs on six hits in five innings. San Diego is 4-0 in Cease's past four starts after scoring two or fewer runs in their previous game. The Rays have lost Pepiot's past four starts as underdogs, and they have stayed UNDER in his five appearances. The UNDER is 6-0 in San Diego's past six games following a loss and is on a current 7-2 UNDER run. Take the Padres and the UNDER.

San Diego at Tampa Bay

September 1, 2024
img5:40 PM Eastern

Tampa Bay kept its dwindling playoff hopes alive with an 11-4 victory over the Padres on Saturday. Rookie Junior Caminero hit a three-run homer, and Jose Caballero added two singles and four RBIs for Tampa Bay, which can't afford many more losses. The Rays have won four straight home games against right-handed starters and six of their past seven Sunday games overall. San Diego has lost its past four in Game 3 of a series and the Padres have lost three of their past four games overall. Ryan Pepiot starts for the Rays, who have won four of his past five starts and he owns a 1.08 WHIP this season. Pepiot has allowed only seven earned runs his past 33 innings. Dylan Cease gave up four runs on seven hits in 4 1/3 innings against St. Louis on Tuesday. Take the Rays.
