Rockies at Giants picks and predictions

Prediction

Rockies 7, Giants 3

Moneyline

The ROCKIES (+155) are winless this season at Oracle Park and 14-39 on the road, the worst mark in the National League.

But the Giants have lost Hicks’ last 5 starts and haven’t scored more than 3 runs in his last 4 outings. Hicks has allowed 3 or more runs in 5 straight starts and has not pitched more than 5 innings.

The Rockies have won 3 of Gomber’s last 4 starts.

The Giants have not swept a 4-game series this season and have only won 4 straight games twice; their last 4-game win streak was May 22-25.

BET ROCKIES (+155).

Run line/Against the spread

There is no need to bet the Rockies on the run line. Ten of their last 12 losses have been by multiple runs. If they don’t pull the outright upset, they won’t likely cover.

PASS.

Over/Under

Six of the Giants’ last 9 games have not gone over 8 runs.

Five of the Rockies’ last 8 have not surpassed 8.

But 6 of Gomber’s last 8 starts have had 9 or more total runs.

BET OVER 8 (-105).

Rockies at Giants picks and predictions

Prediction

Giants 4, Rockies 2

Moneyline

The Rockies are playing well since the break, but that was all at home. Their 14-36 road record is better than only the Chicago White Sox (10-44). They are 3-9 in their last 12 road games.

Freeland has been fantastic since his return from the injured list, not allowing more than 2 ER in any of his 5 starts, but Harrison is 2-0 with a 1.58 in 3 starts against the Rockies.

But the -185 odds for the Giants to win is to pricey to bet here.

PASS. 

Run line/Against the spread

Of the Rockies’ last 15 road losses, 14 have been by multiple runs. Five of the Giants’ 6 wins over the Rockies have been by 2 or more runs.

Despite the Giants’ 21-29 ATS mark at home, they should cover Friday.

BET GIANTS -1.5 (+110).

Over/Under

Five of the 9 matchups between the 2 teams have had more than 8 total runs, but 3 of the last 4 stayed Under 8.

Eight of the Giants’ last 11 games have not gone Over 8 total runs.

BET UNDER 8 (-115).

Rockies at Giants picks and predictions

Prediction

Rockies 5, Giants 3

Moneyline

The Giants have scored 2 or fewer runs 5 times in their last 8 games, averaging 2.8 runs per game along that span. San Francisco has lost 6 in a row and 7 of 8.

The Rockies are 2-12 in their last 14 road games but have averaged 3.8 runs per game in their last 9 road games.

Blach has been reliable as a starter so far while Harrison was knocked around in his last outing.

BET ROCKIES (+180).

Run line/Against the spread

Betting the Rockies at +1.5 (-120) isn’t an awful idea, but their last 7 losses — and 15 of their last 18 losses — have been by 2 or more runs. If they are going to cover, it is more likely they win outright, and that’s the far better payout.

The Giants are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 and are 66-74 ATS overall this season.

PASS.

Over/Under

All 3 games between the 2 teams this season in San Francisco have had 8 or fewer total runs.

None of Harrison’s 3 starts has had more than 7 total runs.

Five of Blach’s 8 starts have had 8 or fewer total runs.

BET UNDER 8.5 (-110).
