San Diego Padres Analysis

The San Diego Padres have had mixed results in their recent series, winning one out of three. They are currently 4-6 in their last 10 games and are one game behind the final wild-card spot in the National League. The team's hitting has been lackluster in the last two weeks, with a .225 average and limited extra-base hits. However, the bullpen has performed well with a 2.79 ERA. Dylan Cease will be starting on Wednesday night with a record of 3-8 this season. He has had success against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the past. The Padres have a power ranking of 21 and are ranked #23 for offense and #9 for defense, with a 48-42 overall record. Arizona recently went 1-2 in their last three matchups against San Diego.

Struggles for Pfaadt and Cease Could Pose Challenges for Starting Duo

Recently, both Brandon Pfaadt and Dylan Cease have encountered challenges in their performance. Pfaadt has yielded a total of 11 runs (10 earned) on 17 hits and four walks in the last three starts encompassing 16 innings. Similarly, Cease has conceded 15 runs (14 earned) on 24 hits and seven walks in his last four starts covering 21.2 innings.
