Diamondbacks vs Giants prediction

The Giants have been in a funk offensively recently, and I doubt they find their footing here. Zac Gallen is one of the best pitchers in baseball, and he’s off to a strong start, allowing 4 runs through 22 innings while striking out 26. Kyle Harrison has allowed 28 earned runs through 57.2 career MLB innings. You’re not going to get many chances with Gallen at prices this cheap. Take advantage while you still can. Give me the Diamondbacks.
