Giants vs Diamond Backs +130 O/U 9
This game stuck out some to me. The Giants are coming off of a disappointing 2 losses in a row courtesy of the now healthy LA Dodgers. The Diamondbacks have actually fared far worse losing 7 out of their last 8 games and they have only won 2 total games since June 1st. Ouch! Now why is that? Let’s do the math. Oh yeah. They are bad at baseball that’s why. Arizona is dead last in run differential at -117 so we can’t even call all of this cluster luck. The Giants are a top 2 team in home runs while Merrill Kelly takes the mound sporting a bad 4.70 ERA, 3.96 FIP and 1.29 WHIP. The Giants have Cueto at the mound who is actually a better road pitcher at 3.44 away FIP compared to a 3.9 total FIP. I think that the Giants get a feel good win here while the Diamondbacks continue to struggle on offense and defense.
Giants -140 – 2 stars
