Randy’s Pick
You can make a case for either side here, and Merrill Kelly has been fabulous this season, so the Diamondbacks and the plus money is hard to ignore. However, the San Francisco Giants have been so hot these last 2 weeks it’s hard to turn them down, especially at home. I don’t care who the Giants throw out on the mound, their offense is too hot. Give me the hot hand and the home team.
