The Rockies stink and just aren’t a team I’m willing to get behind. Ray hasn’t been great in his last two starts, but he’s been solid overall since coming over from San Francisco. The Padres are fighting for their playoff lives and can’t afford to blow games against bottom feeders. There are no excuses for the Padres in a spot like this. Of course I’ll lay the RL to shave down the price.
