Shane’s Free Pick

Ross Stripling has been a major issue for the Giants and he sits with an ERA of 7.14. Walker hasn’t been a whole lot better sitting with an ERA of 5.75. Both of the pitchers are going to really struggle here, and that will be the difference as this game is going to be higher scoring. Back the over to cash.
