Giants at Diamondbacks picks and predictions
Prediction
Diamondbacks 4, Giants 3
Moneyline
San Francisco has lost 6 straight road games to Arizona.
The lefty-lefty mound matchup swings the home 9 into its best platoon splits. The Snakes own MLB’s 3rd-best OPS vs. port-siders (.775). Despite its recent 5-game slide, Arizona is still 14-12 over its last 26 games.
The confidence level in Walston is not high, however. Consider a partial-unit play — FanDuel Sportsbook has the best available price — on ARIZONA (-112).
Run line/Against the spread
Not enough return coming back here. PASS.
Over/Under
The Under cashed Monday and is 5-2-2 in this series since Aug. 1.
There is just a barely-perceptible lean on FanDuel’s UNDER 9 (-112) for Tuesday’s game. Consider going in with less than a full unit.
