Atlanta rookie starter Sean Newcomb has shown a lot of promise in three home starts. But he's an unknown commodity on the road. This is his first away big league start. Petco Park is the premier pitcher's park in the majors, but it has gotten better for the hitters. The Padres are averaging 5.2 runs in their last nine home games.

Padres starter Jhoulys Chacin has pitched far better at Petco than on the road where his ERA is a fat 9.08. Chacin is Chacin, though, a journeyman pitcher. There should not be a total lower than eight attached to his name.

Chacin made five starts for the Braves last season so Atlanta is familiar with him. The Braves were shut out in their last game, but averaged 6.5 runs during their previous 12 games. Matt Kemp and Brandon Phillips are enjoying huge comeback seasons for the Braves both batting above .300 as is Ender Inciarte, one of the more underrated players in the league.

Neither bullpen can be trusted either.
