Why the Colorado Rockies will win

  • The underdogs have won four of the Giants' last five games at Oracle Park.
  • The Giants have lost three of their last four games as home favorites.
  • The Giants have failed to cover the run line each of their last eight games against teams that held a losing record.

Rockies vs. Giants Prediction

I’m on the Rockies here. I know the Rockies have been a far different team at Coors compared to on the road like they are here, but the Rockies have been solid in two series out of the break. Now they head out on the road, but Freeland’s been really solid since returning to the lineup and the Giants have had issues against lefties as of late. I think the value is on the Rockies here so give me Colorado.

Chris’s Pick Colorado +140
