San Francisco Giants vs Colorado Rockies Prediction
The Colorado Rockies remain a tough team to back as the losses continue to pile up, and they’re a loser for bettors despite being massive underdogs daily. The San Francisco Giants have found their offense this week, and these are games they can’t afford to blow as they hope to remain in the NL wild card race. Austin Gomber has been worse on the road than at home this season, which is weird considering he pitches in Coors. Give me the Giants and the RL for max betting value.
