by Thomas Jensen on Friday, August 31st, 2007

MLB Betting Preview: Los Angeles Dodgers at San Diego PadresOne of the best rivalries in sports resumes on Friday night as the San Diego Padres host the Los Angeles Dodgers in a key National League West series. The Padres and Dodgers are separated by just a few games in the standings so this is a critical series. New Dodger pickup David Wells gets the start against his old team in the opener. Wells is 6-8 and has a 5.46 ERA for the season. The Padres may go with Wilfredo Ledezma who is 3-3 and has an ERA of 5.68 this season. It is also possible the Padres will go with a bullpen by committee approach in this game. SBG Global
