Featured Match-Up: San Francisco Giants vs. Colorado Rockies
Time: 8:40 ET / 5:40 PT
Television: MLB.TV NBCSBA Rockies.tv
The Giants are climbing their way back into the NL Wild Card race, winning nine of their last ten games against both top and bottom teams (Brewers, Cubs, Orioles, Rockies). The Rockies are at the other end of the spectrum, with only two wins in their last 12 games. The juice for -1.5 is starting to get high, but considering German Marquez is on the bump for Colorado, who gave up 8 earned runs in 4.1 innings and 2 home runs in his last start against the Cubs (and 3-12, 6.14 ERA on the season), I’m comfortable taking the risk on San Francisco covering -2.5 at plus money.
Pick: Giants -2.5 (+105) BetMGM
