San Diego Padres righty Joe Musgrove (foot) will start Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to AJ Cassavell of MLB.com, giving him a week off since his last start on April 29.

Free MLB Player Props - Today's Prop Betting Picks for Hitters and Pitchers (5/4/23)

What a letdown the young prospects were yesterday on what was a frustrating baseball day.

After a terrible start to the 2023 season, Padres pitching prospect Jay Groome turned in six no-hit innings for Triple-A El Paso.

We are back for the fourth iteration of breakout hitters!

Early Slate - DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/3/23): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

There is a four-game matinee on getaway day this week. The bad news is that neither site has the major league debut of Arizona's top prospect, Brandon Pfaadt.

Real or Fake? Standout Starting Pitchers for Fantasy Baseball (April Edition)

Trent Grisham Getting A Rest Tuesday

San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham is absent from Tuesday's starting lineup to take on Graham Ashcraft and the Cincinnati Reds.

Free MLB Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (5/2/23)

Yesterday was about as bad as a day I could have had from a betting standpoint. First, Luis Garcia left after eight pitches as I had him in every DFS lineup and not only bet his K prop but had a ladder as well. I had Weaver in the same boat; he was about as […]

Domingo Tapia Called On For Monday's Save

San Diego Padres reliever Domingo Tapia earned a multi-inning save Monday, his first of the season, when his team defeated the Cincinnati Reds 8-3.
