As he goes for his 15th win of the season, Ubaldo Jimenez will be liked in MLB baseball betting odds on Friday when the Colorado Rockies host the San Diego Padres. 
Jiminez hasn’t pitched that well lately, even though he has a 14-1 record and an ERA of 2.27, so the Padres have an opportunity in this baseball wagering matchup
Jimenez has permitted 17 runs in his previous 17 2/3 innings nevertheless the Rockies have bailed him out every time and he hasn’t suffered a loss. Actually, even though his ERA is 8.66, he’s still 1-0 in his last 3 starts. He is 3-0 with a 3.32 ERA vs the Padres this season and in his career vs San Diego he’s 7-3 with a 3.61 ERA.

Five of those 6 matches went over the total but it should be noted that all 3 of the matches back in April in Colorado went under the total.
San Diego has been an amazing squad this season. Picked for last in the NL West, the Padres have shocked everyone and stayed in 1st place. It is now July and the Padres are no more a fluke. San Diego has demonstrated they can win on the road and at home. They find ways to score enough runs to win and they’ve got a very great pitching staff.
