Arizona Diamondbacks vs San Francisco Giants Prediction
The Arizona Diamondbacks are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re at home, and the Giants are coming off a rough week. It would also be nice to know who is starting for the San Francisco Giants. With all that said, I’m still grabbing the Giants and the plus money. The Diamondbacks continue to underachieve, and Ryne Nelson hasn’t pitched well this season. Nelson has an ERA over 6 on the season, and his numbers have been even worse at home. I don’t care who is starting for the Giants. Give me the Giants on the road and the more favorable price as more of a fade of the Diamondbacks more than anything.
