Cincinnati at San Diego

It has to be hard for the Cincinnati Reds to muster much energy, as they are on their first road trip of the season since dealing Johnny Cueto to Kansas City. The trade was a statement by management, confirming the curtain of hope has come down on the 2015 Reds season. The Reds managed just a single run last night, and this is just game two of a punishing 10-game road trip. San Diego used a 2-run HR by Justin Upton, the only runs they would need, to win the opener. The Reds are in a horrible road situation for them, beyond the mental state of this team right now. Cincinnati is now 21-61 in their last 82 games when they are a dog and off a game that saw 3 or fewer runs scored. Take the Padres in this one.
