Bet Today’s Padres vs. Braves Game
OUR PICK: The Padres are now winless at 0-6 in their last six games against the Braves and are 0-5 in their last five games in Atlanta. The Braves should be able to get after Cahill, who is coming off the 10-day disabled list after experiencing a lower back strain coming out of his first start of the season. Colon was roughed up in Tuesday’s loss to the Marlins but he should bounce back against San Diego.
