It’s a travel day in Major League Baseball, resulting in a lighter than usual slate of just eight games for Thursday.
But two of the MLB teams in action — the San Diego Padres and Atlanta Braves — have been very reliable for bettors as the road team.
Let’s start with the Padres, who find themselves in a very-contested National League West race with the Los Angeles Dodgers. At this point, the Dodgers have a 1.5-game edge in the standings and those two clubs begin an important four-game series at Dodger Stadium on Thursday night.
