The San Diego Padres have called up Ryan Weathers to start tonight. This is an interesting move, considering how poorly he has been doing in El Paso this year. In 12 starts, he has a 7.29 ERA. We'll see if he does better in The Show.
Caleb Kilian takes the mound for Chicago in what is just his second Major League start. He looked great in his first appearance, going five innings and allowing three runs on three hits.

After an abismal start to the season, Jake Cronenworth is starting to heat up. He's been a threat at the plate for the past few weeks, and he is six for eight in this series. There is something he loves about playing in Chicago, and bettors should expect more off the same from him.

San Deigo Padres vs. Chicago Cubs Prediction
It's an exciting matchup today with two rookie pitchers. There is no reason to believe Weathers will do better in the majors than he did in Triple-A. It is likely to be a high-scoring game as Vegas has predicted, but Kilian is the better pitcher and should be able to get Chicago out of their losing streak.
Cubs (-146) & Under 11.5 (-105)
