***MASSIVE MISMATCH LOCATED!*** AAA's MLB SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION!
(MLB) San Diego vs. Pittsburgh,
Money Line: -160.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Pittsburgh Pirates.

We think the Pirates build off their 3-2 win yesterday, while we expect the Padres to stumble in the opener of this three game set. The visitors hand the ball to the erratic Eric Lauer (1-2, 8.27 ERA) who after a strong outing against the Dodgers in his previous outing which saw him give up no runs over six frames, would predictably come back down to Earth again in a loss to the Cards on Friday, getting wheeled for six runs off seven hits with no K's over 2.1 innings. To go along with his atrocious 8.27 ERA, Lauer also sports a horrible 2.14 WHIP. The home side goes with Chad Kuhl (4-2, 4.17) who comes in off an unfortunate no-decision against the Giants on Saturday, allowing three runs off six hits and four walks over six innings while striking out six. Kuhl hasn't been perfect this year, but his 42:16 K:BB over 45.1 innings of work is impressive and note that he's so far been at his best at home this season with a very respectable 2-0, 3.52 ERA record as well. We feel that this line could/should be a lot larger considering the massive talent discrepancy on the mound. Lay the price, play on the PIRATES.
