Predictions and Betting Preview for the Padres vs Dodgers MLB Regular Season Game on May 13, 2023
- Where: Dodgers Stadium, Los Angeles, California
- When: Sunday, May 14, 2023, 4:10 PM E.T.
Betting on the San Diego Padres
- 2023 Regular Season Record: 19-20
- Moneyline: [To be determined]
- Run Line: [To be determined]
- Over/Under: [To be determined]
The San Diego Padres are still struggling to live up to expectations, given their roster full of stars.
One aspect that raises concern is Manny Machado’s performance, who has a batting average of .263 in May, with only one home run hit. So, a lot is expected from the Dominican player, whose bat is necessary for the San Diego Padres to wake up as soon as possible.
Currently, the Padres’ collective batting average is a terrible .230 (ranked 27th in the MLB), which is unacceptable for a team that has Juan Soto, Xander Bogaerts, Fernando Tatís Jr., and the aforementioned Machado in its lineup.
Starting Pitcher: Ryan Weathers (1-1, 2.50 EFE)
Betting on the Los Angeles Dodgers
- 2023 Regular Season Record: 24-15
- Moneyline: [To be determined]
- Run Line: [To be determined]
- Over/Under: [To be determined]
The Los Angeles Dodgers, on the other hand, have won eight out of their last ten games (excluding Saturday’s match), and have been a solid team in all aspects, proving themselves as one of the top contenders in the MLB.
Under the leadership of manager Dave Roberts, the Dodgers rank second in the MLB with 66 home runs, just behind the surprising Tampa Bay Rays with 79. What’s more, the Dodgers hold fifth place in RBI with 208 and sixth in total bases with 579.
Their pitching has also improved, with a collective ERA of 4.04 (fourteenth in the MLB). Let’s remember that just a few weeks ago, the Dodgers’ ERA was around 4.80.
Starting Pitcher: Tony Gonsolin (0-1, 1.93 EFE)
JefeBet Prediction
So far in this 2023 season, in three out of their four Padres vs Dodgers head-to-head matchups, the Los Angeles Dodgers have come out on top (excluding Saturday night’s game). Therefore, at JefeBet, we believe that the blue team will continue to assert its dominance in the upcoming Padres vs Dodgers clash, which has been a disappointing team lately.
Prediction: Los Angeles Dodgers Run Line (SD 3- 6 LAD).
