In this Diamondbacks vs Giants Prediction, both teams are coming at a pick ’em price. The Giants have a better record and have been very strong at home, and they are coming off a big bounce-back win yesterday. I don’t trust either pitcher in this matchup, as they have a combined 12.68 ERA, and Rodriguez is coming in terrible form and was shelled last season by the Giants. The Dbacks have the third-worst bullpen in the MLB with a 5.18 ERA, while both teams have been hitting righties very well, averaging 10.2 runs combined against right-handed pitching. Take the over 8 in this one.
