Dodgers vs Padres: Latest Betting Odds, Predictions and Picks for September 9
After their first off-day in a couple weeks, the Dodgers hope to not get an unscheduled off-day today as the weather forecast is calling for a lot of rain in San Diego. Los Angeles is scheduled to start a three-game series with the Padres this evening.
Dustin May is scheduled to take the mound for the Dodgers, although weather concerns might cause them to call an audible. With May making just his fourth start since Tommy John surgery, they might be hesitant to send him out to start the game if there’s a chance of a rain delay. May struggled in his last start, allowing six earned runs in four innings against the Padres.
San Diego will counter with Mike Clevinger, who fidgets so much on the mound he would make coffee nervous, as Vin Scully would have said. Clevinger’s last start also came in the last Dodgers/Padres series, when he allowed five earned runs in 3.1 innings. He has only faced L.A. twice in his career (not counting a one-inning start in the 2020 NLDS), allowing ten earned runs in eight innings.
