San Francisco Giants vs Colorado Rockies Analysis<\/h2>\n

The Colorado Rockies travel to Oracle Park to take on the San Francisco Giants in the first of a three game set. Right-hander German Marquez takes the hill against hard-throwing southpaw Carlos Rodon.<\/p>\n

The Rockies come limping into the Bay area after going 2-5 on their recent homestand against Miami and Atlanta, and losing their last four to the Braves. San Fran comes back home after going 5-5 on a 10-game roadie in Cincinnati, Philly and Miami.<\/p>\n

Colorado Rockies Betting Preview<\/h3>\n

After a good month of April, the Rockies have reverted to the Rockies we’ve known for years. A club that can put up a lot of hits and runs, but also gives up a lot of hits and runs to opposing lineups.<\/p>\n

Rockies starter German Marquez has been Joe Namath-type “strug-gl-ling” this year on the mound. In 10 starts and 55.0 innings, the righty has a 6.81 ERA and a 1.61 WHIP along with 46 strikeouts. Even when you play half your games at Coors Field, these are really bad numbers.<\/p>\n

San Francisco Giants Betting Preview<\/h3>\n

The Giants come into today’s action with a 29-24 record, good for 3rd in the NL West and 5.5 games behind the Dodgers. And they’re one of the few teams with a better OPS than the Rockies – 4th at .735 with a team average of .244.<\/p>\n

Carlos Rodon has cooled down after a really good start to the season. However, he still has solid numbers after 10 starts and 55.0 innings with a 3.44 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 70 strikeouts.<\/p>\n

He pitched well in his May 9 start against Colorado going 6.0 innings, giving up six hits, two earned runs and striking out 12.<\/p>\n

After a great month of April on the mound, the Giants pitching has imploded over the last five weeks. Their bullpen is in the bottom six of MLB at a 4.47 ERA and 1.35 WHIP, and the team is 24th best with a 4.30 ERA.<\/p>\n

Their staff has more talent than what their stats are showing, and they should be due for some positive regression. But until I see a string of good outings and proof they’ve turned things around, I’ll probably continue to fade most Giants pitchers.<\/p>\n

San Francisco Giants vs Colorado Rockies Prediction<\/h2>\n

This game seems to set up really well for both lineups. The Rockies are #1 in MLB in OPS versus southpaws, the Giants are #8 in OPS against righties – and they’re going against a struggling right-hander in Marquez.<\/p>\n

There are a couple of factors that give me some cause for pause. The Rockies play their first game tonight on the road after a seven-game homestand, which for hitters has been known as the “Coors Field hangover.”<\/p>\n

The Giants will play their first home game in 11 outings – which has also been a situation to fade the home team. But the opening total of 7.5 runs seems a bit low (even for pitcher-friendly Oracle Park).<\/p>\n

Right now these two teams are so good at hitting and so bad at pitching. And I can’t trust either bullpen to hold their favorite beverage – much less a lead late in games – so I don’t see how this game stays under eight runs. That’s why I’ll take the full game over.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Over 8 Total Runs Scored<\/strong><\/p>\n
