The San Francisco Giants (48-48) take on the Arizona Diamondbacks (43-53) Tuesday in the 2nd of a 4-game set at Chase Field. First pitch is set for 9:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Giants vs. Diamondbacks odds with MLB picks and predictions.
Season series: Arizona leads 4-3.
The Giants haven’t won a game in the 2nd half and are on a 5-game skid after Monday’s 7-0 loss to the D-backs. San Fran was only able to muster up 3 hits in the power outage. Ace LHP Carlos Rodon looks to turn the tides and rebound from 5 ER allowed to the Dodgers in his last start.
Arizona got a gem from RHP Merrill Kelly Monday as he struck out 7 and allowed 3 hits over 8 scoreless frames. He’s now 10-5 with a 3.04 ERA on the season with little fanfare. C Carson Kelly is also on a bit of a heater with a 6-game hitting streak that has raised his average from .181 to .221. Arizona has now won 4 of its last 5.
