Michael King should cover a max of five innings but with just 61 pitches thrown in one rehab start, this may be one of the best ways to fade him tonight. The odds are juicy but he has ability to reach six strikeouts even when limited and there's no outs line available, so this is my angle. King mentioned wanting to be efficient in this start with a limited pitch count but even getting through five innings won't guarantee the win, and the Padres have a plethora of relievers ready, so he could easily leave early. Playing a 0.5u (-135) parlay of Bradley Blalock (NO - Record a Win) with this play, but a hitter of your choice for 1+ hits is an option too.
Just a masterclass from the Red Sox on Friday at Petco. Got that wrong, will fully admit. But here's the thing about the Padres: When all those wicked relievers are fully available, it's basically a five-inning game. And they all are tonight because of the Friday blowout. Ace Michael King makes his return from the IL as well on Saturday ... but considering all the time off, the bullpen probably will be needed plenty. Usually, bullpen is a curse word to me. Just crushing me of late. But not in this case (I don't believe).
