Colorado Rockies vs. San Francisco Giants Prediction
I’m leaning towards the Rockies here. Lorenzen’s been better on the road this season and right now, i’m not trying to lay this price with Logan Webb just because it’s Logan Webb at Oracle Park. Sure, Webb’s been better at home over the course of his career, but right now it’s just hard to back Colorado in general and I think Colorado takes care of business here. Give me the Rockies.
