Rockies vs. Giants Prediction

I’m on the Giants -1.5 in both games. I thought the Rockies’ best shot early on was in the opener of the series with Kyle Freeland in great form, but the Rockies brutal road form once again reared it’s ugly head. The Giants have the edge in starting pitching in both matchups and have the much more trustworthy bullpen. I also favor their bats in this spot, so give me the Giants -1.5 in both games.
