The National League's West division is always one of the most hotly contested divisions in all of baseball. This year is proving to be no different as it stands right now. Four teams are looking to get the automatic bid to the Playoff that accompanies winning the division. The Rockies, Giants, Padres, and Dodgers all are laying claim to what they believe is rightfully theirs. So, you can imagine the excitement of betting this game on Thursday night, as the Los Angeles Dodgers take on the San Diego Padres in what should prove to be the ultimate test of wills. The free bet selection of betsfreebets.com will be the San Diego Padres at home thanks to the ability of their starting pitching to absolutely shutdown the opposing team.

Where the Dodgers have succeeded so far this season has been at the plate where Rafael Furcal, Andre Ethier, and James Loney have all been hitting exceptionally well. Furcal currently leads the team in hitting with his .333 average, and while he hasn't been hitting for much power, the guy simply just gets on base for his team. This is very important due to the fact that he has Ethier and Loney hitting behind him in the lineup. These two players are also playing extremely well so far this year, and bettors everywhere should be putting their bets on the Dodgers in the majority of the games that they play in. For this one against the Padres, however, it is important that your free wager be placed on the San Diego Padres.

Aside from Kevin Correia, the rest of the San Diego starting staff has been absolutely locking down opposing hitters all season long. The mixture of power and finesse that the Padres are able to throw out on the mound on a game-to-game basis is absolutely astonishing to see. Young Mat Latos has been absolutely incredible in his 17 starts so far this year. With a 10-4 record and a 2.45 ERA, he is leading San Diego in both wins and ERA, which is not an easy thing to do when you also have Wade LeBlanc, Clayton Richard, and Jon Garland in your starting rotation. The hitting for the Padres has been another story. They have gotten by on their good pitching so far, but come Playoff time, it might prove to be increasingly harder to get victories if they cannot field a solid lineup on a nightly basis. This should be a phenomenal game to bet, and the free wager should go the way of the Padres.

This is one of those series that might not have meant that much early in the season. However, as July closes, it is becoming more and more apparent that these two teams are battling with each other for positioning the National League West. If you are looking to be on one major contest on Thursday night, make sure you follow the advice of betsfreebets.com and place your free bet on the San Diego Padres.
