Giants -116
We should see quite a battle tonight when the Giants face the Cardinals. Giants are off a clean sweep of the Padres, and the Cardinals took 2 of 3 vs the Mariners. Ever since June 30th, the Giants have been scoring at will, scoring 10, 13, 10, and 7 runs in their last 4 games. The Cardinals are a decent team, but their bats are a tad on and off. In the entire month of June, they have not scored in double digits like the Giants have in their last 4, and in addition, in their last 11 games, the most they have scored was 5 runs. Not shutting them down, they have been pitching well and getting some wins, but without those Bats, they are losing more than winning. In their last 10 games, they are 4-6 with a 5 game losing streak in the middle of that. They just beat up on the mariners, but their pitching is atrocious, Seattle ranks 27th in Bullpen ERA and the most they scored were 5 runs. Hudson is a beast tho, before giving up 7 runs in 1 inning to the Padres on June 29th, he gave up 1 run in his last 4 of 5. In those games, he went 6-7 innings. Pomeranz has also been pitching very well at home, in his last 4 home starts, he has given up 0 runs twice and 2 runs twice. In those starts, he was only able to go 5 innings, however the Giants bullpen rank 5th. The Cardinals rank 7th, so its going to be a war today. For us, we felt that this would be a low scoring game and an over under of around 7.5, maybe 8, however it is sitting at 8.5, which implies to us that the Giants could keep hitting today, cuz we don't believe that the Cardinals will explode, they haven't for a while. If this over under was sitting at 7.5, we would lay off as Hudson can go long and shut out the Giants, but with it sitting at 8.5, we believe both pitchers give up some runs early and the better bullpen and bats should take this game. We are taking the Giants, in a game where we see it being 5-3, 6-3, or 6-4. Lets go!
