It's the Padres starting pitching debut of Michael King, who was so good last year with the Yankees. He did pitch in relief in Seoul. Few Giants have seen him. Journeyman Daulton Jeffries starts for the Giants. Pretty bad career numbers for him in the Show.

Daulton Jeffries is an amazing story, getting to the majors despite his repeated surgeries and making this start. But the Padres lineup is legit, they love hitting in this park and I expect Michael King to show well for them here after an awkward tune up in Korea. Padres will be a Wild Card contender for me, Tatis has his swag back and with some of the pressure off I think more guys will hit like the back of their baseball card indicates. Could be a long day for the Gigantes pen

This series has been high scoring and that was with several frontline starters taking the bump. Every single game has been over nine total runs and with a day game Sunday, we know Petco Park plays better for the hitters. The pitching matchup is Daulton Jefferies and Michael King and both are vulnerable while the bullpens have been a little taxed. The Giants' offense has shown to be feisty and the Padres' offense is so talented. There's a lot to like here from the bats.
