The Padres have been one of the better teams in baseball at avoiding strikeouts against lefties, punching out just 19.2 percent of the time, so I’m targeting another way to bet on Manaea to pitch well Tuesday.

At PETCO Park on Tuesday, the San Diego Padres (three straight victories) take on the New York Mets at 9:40 p.m. ET. The Padres (+100 underdog on the moneyline) take the field at home against the Mets (-118). The Mets will give the ball to Sean Manaea (1-1) versus the Padres and Ryan Bergert.

The Mets look to extend their seven-game winning streak against a Padres team that is starting to pick up some steam on Monday night at Petco Park.

That’s not even all of it: Huascar Brazoban’s misplay allowed the Padres to score the tying run. Padres starter Dylan Cease was whacked in the head by a one-hopper and stayed in the game. He wasn’t even the only pitcher to eat grass Monday.
