Rockies at Giants picks and predictions
Prediction
Giants 4, Rockies 3
Money line
Colorado is worthy of a look for a lean. For that lean to materialize, we should want at least +225 in return. So PASS, but keep an eye on the tag.

Run line/Against the spread
The Frisco lineup leans left and that gets Gomber into some workable lanes. With a likable Under and the way some mid-home stand series finales have gone for the Giants, BACK THE ROCKIES +1.5 (+100).
Over/Under
Figure both offenses being a bit too far out over their skis overall, and this series was set up as one for Unders … and has delivered.
That’s the call for this one as well. Webb is solid, and Gomber figures as more of a high-4s ERA pitcher. Both bullpens are better than surface numbers indicate.
BACK THE UNDER 8.5 (-125). Consider a partial-unit play unless a better price comes along.
