Pirates vs Giants -230 O/U 8
Well this is a pretty big price for this run total. The Giants are eyeing the playoffs and trying to stay on top of the division. They are facing a Pittsburgh team that is starting Wil Crowe. He has a 6.07 FIP and a horrible 1.62 WHIP coming into this game. If he gets a quality start today, I might have to eat crow. Gausman is on the mound for the Giants. He has a .85 WHIP. Seriously? Do I even need to say anything more? Why would I have to give up any other stats on a guy with a .85 WHIP? This price is large and it should be being that San Francisco is one of the best batting teams ranking 5th in wRC+ and Pittsburgh is one of the worst at 28th. Football season is coming baby so I am thinking spread. I can certainly see some margin in this game and the price is more than $1 better. The wind is blowing out making this low total at 8 tell me that its all the San Francisco. Take the Giants by 2.
Giants -1.5 -121 – 2 stars
