The San Francisco Giants just two seasons ago won 107 games and the National League West, now they return home to host the New York Mets after a 6-11 start of the season.
New York Mets (-135, 8.5) vs. San Francisco Giants
The Giants are hoping Thursday's starter, Sean Manaea, can return to peak form as he's posted a 4.94 ERA with 1.6 home runs per nine innings since the start of the 2022 season after registering a 3.68 ERA with just 1.2 home runs and 1.9 walks per nine innings allowed from the 2018-21 seasons.
Manaea gets the break of facing a Mets lineup that has gotten off to a slow start to the season with a .227 batting average, which is the second-lowest in the National League.
