Giants at Rockies: Projected starting pitchers

RHP Logan Webb vs. LHP Kyle Freeland 

Webb has made just 15 Major League starts in his young career. He has notched a 4.35 ERA over seven starts in 2020.

  • Webb allowed just one earned run in a five-frame start at Coors Field Aug. 5.

Freeland owns a 3.43 ERA through 7 starts.

  • He is coming off a rough outing and has been iffy over his last three turns at Coors Field. One of those starts (Aug. 2) was against these Giants, a club which has posted solid numbers against him in past meetings with a .784 OPS. 
  • The Colorado lefty is a partial season removed from a 6.73 ERA and 1.58 WHIP.

Moneyline (ML)

The Rockies were drubbed 13-2 Sunday and 6-0 Monday against the San Diego Padres. Both of those games were also at home. Tuesday, the Giants came to town and opened the abbreviated series with a 23-5 embarrassment of the home nine. The Rockies are 6-15 over their last 21 games. 

The Giants have won three in a row and 10 of their last 13. Over that stretch, San Francisco bats have cranked out 6.8 runs per game on a robust .892 OPS. Left-handed pitchers turn the Giants around to their best platoon numbers with a .806 OPS. San Francisco batters own a high-contact .802 OPS against Freeland.

The price is ripe for some profit on the visitors — TAKE THE GIANTS +125.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

Steer clear of the juice-drowned run line — Giants +1.5 (-162)/Rockies -1.5 (+135). San Francisco giving -155 would make for a lean. PASS.

Over/Under (O/U)

LAY OFF the Over 11.5 (-110)/Under 11.5 (-110).

Prediction

Giants 6, Rockies 4

Moneyline (ML)

The Rockies (-115) were shutout Monday, 6-0, by the San Diego Padres at home. Colorado is sliding in the standings thanks to a 6-14 run over its last 20 games.  

The Giants (+105) have won back-to-back games, and their last series, against the Arizona Diamondbacks. San Francisco has come on strong in recent weeks, winning 7 of its last 10 games.

Colorado won the earlier series meeting at Coors Field, 3-1, but the Rockies didn’t dominate the Giants at home in 2019. They went 5-4 in the season series at Coors Field.

Gray’s numbers aren’t very inspiring and it’s not as though he should expect Colorado’s bottom-5 bullpen to bail him out of any trouble. We are BETTING GIANTS (+105) since they are the hotter team and getting plus-money.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

Each team has a winning run line record overall but Colorado is just 7-12 on the run line at Coors Field this year. I am cool with the moneyline wager and PASSING ON THE RUN LINE.

Over/Under (O/U)

The UNDER 12 (-110) is the play because the trends say so. Both teams have cashed Unders in 3 of their last 4 games and the Under is 21-8-3 in the last 32 Giants-Rockies meeting. We are getting a good number because neither pitcher has good splits and Coors Field has the reputation of a hitters’ park.
