San Francisco Giants at Arizona Diamondbacks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s San Francisco Giants at Arizona Diamondbacks odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The San Francisco Giants (40-38) and Arizona Diamondbacks (36-44) meet at 9:40 p.m. ET Tuesday for the 2nd of a 3-game series at Chase Field in Phoenix. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Giants vs. Diamondbacks odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Arizona leads 1-0 after an 8-3 triumph in the Fourth of July series opener.

The Giants have lost 5 straight games, scoring just 12 runs along the way. San Francisco will look to snap that streak against a club it dominated a year ago. S.F. topped Arizona 17 times in 19 games in 2021.

The Diamondbacks — a team averaging a below-average 4.21 runs per game — have found some offense of late. Arizona has scored 29 runs in their last 4 games, going 2-2.

Giants at Diamondbacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Giants 6, Diamondbacks 3

Money line

Arizona’s recent offense has been buoyed by the club going 12-of-32 (.375) with runners in scoring position in its last 4 games.

Wood is likely undervalued a bit. He’s a ground-ball pitcher, and the D-backs have faltered against such. The Giants have the better bullpen, and it’s 1 that is better rested in key slots.

San Francisco is the lean … up to -165. PASS otherwise.

Run line/Against the spread

GIANTS -1.5 (-108) is the best play as currently listed. It wasn’t that long ago when the Giants were playing at a .600-to-.650 clip for multi-week stretches.

Over/Under

The Under 9.5 … at -115 … makes sense. PASS otherwise.

Both clubs have some underlying numbers that support better run prevention than what they have posted so far.
