Padres vs. Phillies Prediction, Winner Payout, Over/Under – Tuesday, June 2

It’s been a solid 58 games for the Padres to begin this season, sitting with an overall record of 32-26. That's good for second place in the NL West behind the Los Angeles Dodgers. They have stumbled recently, going just 3-7 over their last 10 games.

San Diego's primary issue has been on offense this season, where it ranks 29th with -38.8 wRAA (weighted runs above average), per FanGraphs. The franchise's cornerstone, OF Fernando Tatis Jr., hit his first home run a few games ago, so maybe that can serve as a catalyst not just for this offense but for this team in general.

The Phillies started off this season horrendously and dug themselves into a double-digit deficit in the race for the NL East Crown. They have since clawed themselves back over .500, sitting at 30-29 and 9.5 games behind the Atlanta Braves for the division lead.

Philly has also struggled on offense, ranking one spot above the Padres with -29.8 wRAA. Regardless, this roster still carries an incredibly talented batting order. With about two-thirds of the season remaining, the Phillies have plenty of time to chip away at that deficit and put themselves in a position to win the division for the third straight season.

Here are the top Padres vs. Phillies picks to target on PrizePicks for Tuesday, June 2. Today’s MLB picks for PrizePicks include Randy Vasquez and Aaron Nola.

Padres SP Randy Vasquez vs. Phillies: 3.5 Strikeouts

• Vasquez started off this season well but has slowed down in his recent starts.
• He has gone below this projection in his last three appearances, including his last start against the Phillies, where he struck out just 2 batters.
• Vasquez had a swinging-strike rate of just 1.4% and 6.1% in his last two starts.
• Over the last seven days, the Phillies offense posted a .188 BABIP. They may be due for some serious positive regression, and it could come tonight against a pitcher they saw just five days ago.
• The Padres had an off day yesterday, so their bullpen will be fresh and ready to go in case Vasquez struggles early.
