Rockies vs Padres Preview
For tonight’s matchup between San Diego and Colorado at Petco Park, targeting Manny Machado to record at least one single is a high-value play.
Action PRO projects the Padres star third baseman for 0.83 singles, giving us a solid 9.4% edge against the market when compared to his current prop line of over/under 0.5, which is good enough to tag the Over with a B- grade in our system.
Machado will face Rockies starter Tomoyuki Sugano, who had a terrible second half last season with the Orioles and is now looking for a fresh start in Colorado, of all places.
Sugano has done well in his first two starts, but right-handed hitters have done much better against him than lefties. Plus, the Japanese is more of a control pitcher who does not miss too many bats, so Machado will be able to use the ample spaces of Petco to get a single off him tonight.
Rockies vs Padres Picks
Machado has been one of the few bright spots for the Padres offense in this terrible 2026 start of the season, and this is bound to change very soon.
He's hit at least a single in three of his past four games.
Also, has been a menace against the Rockies’ staff recently. Over his last five games against Colorado, he is batting .389 (7-for-18), with six runs scored and three home runs.
If he doesn't get a single off Sugano, he will have chances against the Rockies relievers.
Even though the Colorado bullpen ranks ninth this season in ERA with a splendid 2.98, it doesn't seem sustainable given the quality of their pitchers.
Pick: Manny Machado 1+ Singles (+113, DraftKings)
